Sad Eyes

I was a beef lover - the double cheese burger, yummy beef noodles,marbled wahyu beef..I will no longer eat beef for as long as I could.

Alot of ppl are asking why, even my fren who wanted to order beef pepperoni pizza at Dominos for dinner tonite decided not to ,coz she knew that i don't want to eat beef. How thoughtful!

Well,it all happened when I saw a poor brown Cow tied to a tree with ropes, a day before it was sacrificed. He was quite thin for a cow. Earlier that morning, children provoked BrownCow by throwing things at him..what a pity..

His eyes was watery and he looked at me with those soulful dewy eyes.
I walked past BrownCow ,wanted to look at him a little longer, wanted to give him some water,wanted to tell him how sorry I was. But I couldn't do anything,BrownCow just looked back helplessly with those sad eyes as though he knew his impending fate..

I didn't stay to witness but this is how a cow is slaughtered here:
1

  • Legs bound, the animal is placed on its side.
    2
  • A plank is placed between its legs to keep the cow still. A man then sit on the cow to keep it from struggling.
    3
  • With a single motion of the knife, the man slits the throat of the cow and blood is drained into a hole. So, the knife gotta be sharp..else the cow will suffer a slow painful death..
    4
  • When the cow is motionless, they will begin to skin it.

    Then, Chop, Chop, Chop.

    A cow takes nothing but green grass and water and supply milk..almost like a surrogate mother..Cow gives us all kinds of pleasure -apart from milk,think of all the ice cream, butter,cheese,yogurt,etc that you have consumed. In fact, I think it's the most giving animal in the world!

    So,please do not tempt me with wahyu or kobe beef or cheese burger, fellas!
    Sin choi.Sin choi.
    Poor BrownCow, May God Bless you..
