I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

Hey ita, have you seen the NY Times article about goat meat? [link]

It's pretty funny.

Their unappetizing visage is simultaneously dopey and satanic, like a Disney character with a terrible secret.

Later:

“Is it gay meat?” Confused, I said, “There’s nothing gay about it at all.” She explained, “No, I said is it gamey?”

I think goats are cute. Not satanic! A college friend had house goat. No, really. They started out with a handful her parents used to keep the grounds in good shape, and then one had a kid the mommagoat rejected and her dad brought it inside so it wouldn't die and then couldn't get it OUT of the house (I think he was a big old softie.) Goats have a rep for being destructive, but I think this one thought it was just another cat or dog. If not a person.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I wish I'd ever learnt to cook my own goat meat. I haven't had any since I was in Jamaica over Christmas. I miss it. Hell, I miss eating out anything other than pizza or fries. Maybe I'll be fiscally irresponsible today and order in Chinese. It's no goat, but at least I didn't cook it.

I think goats are darned cute too. But I've never tasted them.

I have to admit I find goat tasty. But unlike ita, I don't miss it when it's not there.

I don't really find them cute looking, but I was utterly charmed by the 4H goats near my old apt. They'd look at you plaintively and say "HEY!"

I love their cheese! I don't know that I've had any goat meat. I feel like I should have, though.

The rival high school in Veronica Mars had a real goat as a mascot. (Newport High, or whatever they called Veronica's school had a parrot.) IJS.

Am I supposed to now wonder what parrot meat tastes like? Because I do.

My dad knows what guinea pig tastes like. (Mom demured, she thinks.) And those worms in Botswana that I don't recall.

I haven't had much if any exotic (to USers) meats. But then, most untuna fish was "exotic" to me. Have had crawdads. Have had snake. But other than that- chicken, duck, goose, beef, pork. There may be a cornish game hen in there.
