      Animals died to get eggs and cheese. Also the animals that are giving milk and eggs will die when they reach a certain age. Also I wouldn’t consider being in a cage 24/7, never seeing the sun, a “life” exactly.

          That’s like saying you don’t mind buying blood diamonds because diamonds are just a rock. Of course they contributed to death, but in essence they are just a shiny rock.

            No, it’s like me saying diamonds are minerals.

            You are thinking too hard. I never alluded to eating eggs or cheese being ethical or not. Cheese is complicated because of the bacteria that makes it, not because it came from an animal.

                Yes exactly, you are bringing ethics into it. I wasn’t.

                It’s a stupid comment about how eating pretty much everything but eggs and maybe cheese kills whatever you are eating. It isn’t some high level philisophical critique on the ethics of what we consume.

                You are making this weird.
