Suddenly he is under assault for his meat-eating ways. The verbal assault is on in earnest; a friendly meal is turned into a decidedly unfriendly debate about the rights of animals, the amount of materials used to feed animals and how disgusting one is to eat meat.
 Save me from the horror!
How do I deal with this dining nightmare next time??
What ammunition should I bring to the table to defend myself against the verbal 'veg' barrage? |
Find common ground. Environmentalism should work. Then point out that cows are one of the primary producers of methane, (a global warming gas), and point out that you are just doing your part to help reduce the problem.
Remember all those BBQs with foreign dignitaries that Bush held on his ranch? Who knew Bush was such a rabid environmentalist!
