I just love your sense of humour. And yes, not killing is so much easier than loving your neighbour in some cases (not that I have bad neighbours...or at least: not anymore). I always say that I wouldn't be able of catching something and killing it to eat if I were ever lost in the woods or something. There would probably enough wild-growing food around to survive on. Unless you get lost in Alaska in the winter of course, that would be a completely different story. In fact, I spent nearly three weeks in the jungle in Malaysia once and survived eating all kinds of things I never even knew grew there. Some with risk of losing my life because we didn't quite know if it was edible LOL. But we were lucky to find coconut, mangoes and bananas, so it wasn't hard. Those weeks were very cleansing and I felt like I was reborn after it! If it weren't for the tiger tracks we saw around our tent, we probably would have stuck it out a bit longer. But to me, that was the sign for us to get back to the 'real world' since my name is not Mowgli ;) And yes, the Germans do go through a lot of meat. I was never really a meat eater (my family was though) and I used to always be appalled by the enormous pieces of meat covered in sauces our neighbours and my family would go through on a festive day.

When I was a kid we did not eat that much meat, we ate a lot of vegetables from our garden.
So I never really liked those dishes in restaurants where you had a big piece of meat and only a few potatoes and vegetables, or a small salad with it.
Where in Malaysia? In Sarawak?
