At least at the Restaurant at the End of the Universe they bred and raised the cow to want to be eaten and to want to sell itself to customers.

Wait. No. That's just absolutely fucked in a different way.

For anyone who hasn't read the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy "trilogy" (of 5 or 6 books), the humor and social commentary still hold up. "Restaurant [...]" is book two.

To be fair I also know a lot of people who want to be eaten

Who spells "Gary" with 2 r's?

People who don't want to be mistaken for Gary, Indiana

Touché.

But still: Heresy

I'm reading a brilliant but grim BD (graphics novel) continuation of the Animal Farm story, and this fits in almost perfectly. My original review was lost in an instance move, but I'll have to do an update one of these days.
