Slaughter brings Ramsey close to tears
Channel 4 will tonight show two pigs being slaughtered on the programme the F-Word. It even features the show's star, hardman chef Gordon Ramsey and owner of the two pigs, close to tears. PETA, and others, I'm sure, hope the programme will turn scores of people vegetarian overnight, so veggie restaurants around the country should stock up in anticipation!
Apparently, Channel 4, on the other hand, are bracing themselves for a flood of complaints over the screening. A spokesperson for the channel said: "A lot of people are in denial about how products arrive on the shelf, and the conditions of farm animals, and one of the points of the series is to show how that happens."
If any meat eaters reading this feel like testing themselves by watching the show, let us know how it goes. I, for one, will be watching football on ITV.

Glad i didn't see this...
But I am glad it was shown. People can't be blind folded to the food they eat.
