If chickens weren't meant to fried, they wouldn't taste so good.

If you prepare livestock properly, the process becomes slick and they accept their fate rather amazingly. I believe it's in their nature.

...you have any science to back that up? Evolution doesn't really tend to prepare creatures for being stabbed with forged steel. You can condition them to halve calmer behavior, but there's really not a lot of conscious acceptance of fate going on with our eatin' birds.

If there is then we should maybe consider the possibility we shouldn't be eating them, given their ability to reason and make conscious choices regarding their inevitable fate.

Actually it does, it's called domestication.

Nope, it's only from experience (mine and others'), that's why I said "I believe".

No. That makes them trust you so you can betray that trust and stab them. It doesn't make them more amenable to being killed. There's a very significant difference.

This actually makes me feel even better about killing them because they will have had little to no anxiety and they got to enjoy the company of a trusted friend in their last moments of life.

Actually you remove the head or slice the throat when killing livestock for food. This ensures the blood is drained.

Don't misunderstand me. I hate animal cruelty. But I feel no remorse for killing for food and neither does any other life that does the same.

my dog would probably allow it even if he knows its coming. Take him to the vet he tries to run away but once he's on the table he just take the shot and gets blood work done and doesn't whine or do anything.

I'm pretty sure they would. Trust from any animal is special like that. Let's not do the experiment though.

Some countries even have livestock dogs that are raised for the sole purpose of being eaten. they also have pet dogs but those are not considered food the way the livestock dogs are.
