Jamie Oliver On Lamb Killing–More People Would Go Vegetarian
Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, March 3rd, 2011 in Animal Issues, Chefs, Food & Drink.
Jamie Oliver sparked controversy when he killed a lamb on television a few years ago. Part of the reason animal activists were so disturbed was because the animal had not been stunned before its throat was slit.
In hindsight, Oliver said he would never perform such an act again. But if every meat eater did that, there might be less of them.
From his interview with LA Times:
“I’ve probably ordered about 10,000 in my career. When you’re there in the village, and it’s their normal tradition, I actually felt quite shallow if I didn’t do it. Did I like it? No, it was bloody horrible. Will I do it again? Probably not.”
