Well, back at the Great Geauga County Fair in September, they hold an animal auction...it's a pretty big deal, and many kids in the area work hard to raise various animals (pigs, ducks, cows, etc.) to be sold at the auction. As we were watching the auction, Emma asked if all the animals were going to be killed and turned into meat. I told her they were. She looked so traumatized that I quickly followed with, "Or, people can take them home and keep them as pets." She was visibly relieved, and said, "Oh good. That's what I would do." Joe's company always buys a pig. We named him Porkchop." He came to us via Mr. T's Smokehouse. Joe brought home some sausage, bacon, and this ham, along with a shoulder steak. We just ate the ham this week. Tasty!
