Letter# 20

Dear G-or-gina.

Thanks for the reading material you sent me. I am now confused about if I should become a vegetarian. I had always tried to block out how an animal that I am eating has died/been killed. I did not know that Lobsters are boiled alive. All I could think of was poor little Sebastian on the little mermaid and how terrified he was. (I know he is a crab but same thing)

“Is it alright to boil a sentient creature alive just for our gustatory pleasure?” I don’t know? OK! But I don’t think I can eat a lobster again.
