    No, but this is reminiscent of the first story in Grimm's Grimmest....

    where the father eats the son that his wife cooked for him, and then the son wound up killing the father's wife and came back to life.

    kinda odd....

    To answer the question: no, I wouldn't eat chicken to save another chicken. I won't ever eat any meat again.

    But I don't miss it anymore either, and I don't care if other people around me eat it.

    If not eating the chicken would kill both the chickens then I would eat one to save the other one i guess... but I would rather not eat any chicken... which saves all chickens that could be eaten by me.. lol

  • No. Why would I eat a chicken to save a chicken's life? It would be like a cycle. It's just pointless...I will still be killing a chicken.

    To save, or not to save a chicken. So as not to insult all chickens, consuming the chicken would have to be the best way of saving, if not honoring it's life. Chickens know and you can see it in their eyes that they have a purpose. A goal. That is to eventually be submerged in a pool of hot oil. Fried to perfection like most of the other chickens in recent history. Some preferred to be roasted, others to bask and lay in an oven toasted. Eating a chicken is definitely that best way to save a it's life.

    Thats a silly question, but yea, I would. In fact, Id eat a chicked even if it didnt save a chickens life because I love the way it tastes. But the real question is, would you eat a person to save a person? Someone you care about would be saved if you ate someone you didnt know. LOL. Heres something to consider.

    Then the same amount of chickens I saved would be eaten...So It's pointless...just like when you buy something wholesale and sell it for the price you bought it.

    I'd eat chicken anyway it's low in fat & tastes great.

    In what hyperthetical scenario is your question possible? Then maybe people can answer it.

    Is there a plate of chicken in front of you, with a gunman saying "Eat or Foghorn Leghorn gets one between the eyes?"

    Or are you on a boat with 2 chickens & with only room for one & the boat will capsize & with chicken being rubbish at swimming, they would drown should this happen? So you eat one, a more humane quicker death than watching it drown.

    Come on throw us a bone here!!!

    i opt to imagine of myself more beneficial as a humanitarian so I ate all seven chickens. the clarification being is, without mama poultry, papa would were beside himself without his mate and mama poultry would were inconsolable without her toddler chicks. So merely imagine of each and every of the poultry tears I kept. Oh, you may have the bum nuts.

  • hmmm, not really sure how that would work but yea i would as long as it was

    1. cooked

    2. part of a meal

    and

    3. a brilliant recipe (perhaps fajita's or an indian curry of some sort!)

    but again, not really sure how eating a chicken would save another one...
