  1. I'm not nuts about people who have never hunted or fished a creature, killed it, and processed it fully, then cooked it fully, at least once.  It's essential.  One time, and your whole perspective changes.  About the animal smells -- out by our place in the country in Brittany, France, a nearby farmer neighbor has a big turkey raising hangar.  Stinky!  Free range pigs are much appreciated in France, and they love it and are generally smarter than dogs, and cleaner, too, on their own.  I kept buying industrial meats (and eggs) and my French spouse put his foot down and made me look at a documentary, and we went to visit his cousin and their industrial pig and veal farm.  Even with their modern facilities and their experience with old-ways animal husbandry, it was quite an eye-opener.  We took an American friend who was kind of stunned.  I won't even drink cow milk anymore unless it's raw, organic, free range.  (I prefer goat or horse milk, anyway.)  I enjoyed New York City for 17 years and like Paris even better.  Huge mix.  I like learning other cultures, and have no specific bone to pick with, say, Muslims.  That'd be like saying I don't like redheads or something.  It does depend, as it does, for me, with, say, dogs!  I don't like them all.  Nicely presented with a polite and enthusiastic lady.  Food is a tenuous but fun way to "travel" a bit.  Uprated.
