You would - I hope - be amazed at how crap some people's educations can be.
My school was adjacent to a cattle farm, but I have no idea what happens to
them apart from what I've seen on television. One of my former teachers is
currently serving 21 years for child abuse.

Yes.

Apart from the obvious, probably not. I saw a television programme in the
middle of the year that claimed the average Hot Dog has 0% meat, so maybe
I'm not alone.

"group issues" - what's that supposed to mean?

No matter how crappy your formal education, the questions you're asking
make you seem not just poorly educated, but frankly clueless, and
seemingly incapable of doing the normal information-seeking that the
vast majority of people find easy and routine.

Hot dogs and most other sausages are primarily meat. You need better
news sources.

I note you comments.

Hot dogs are cartilage and so on.

What's the group? Who are they?

Yes, they're implicitly quite critical of you.

No, mostly they're meat.

It's the group to which I sent my original post,
alt.animals.ethics.vegetarian.

Not really. You say I was born clueless, in some ways incapable and was
not given a proper education. None of those would be my fault.

Your understanding of meat includes, "paste-like and batter-like poultry
product, produced by forcing bones, with attached edible tissue, through a
sieve or similar device under high pressure."

Seems to me that is far better described as cartilage and so on, but don't
let me stop you calling it meat.

Who are they? What are "group" issues? Who do you imagine shares those
issues? Why won't you answer basic questions?

Yes, really.

They're all your fault, now.

That only applied to the turkey; not to the beef and pork.

Nice try. Well, not really, but you're revealing more and more about
yourself with each snarky post. Of course, I knew all of it even before
you revealed it.

Why can't you ask the person who is using the word?

Vegetarian animal ethics.

I don't imagine.

I seem to manage a better job than you.

Lets agree that you tried and failed.

How have the circumstances of my birth become my fault?

It's the main ingredient, that's the reason it was listed first. Didn't
you know that?

Of course.
