Sea kitten and chips, filet-o-sea kitten and sea kitten fingers would replace fishier dish names on restaurant menus, under proposals from the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

The rebranding is aimed at altering the “slithery and slimy” public image of fish, by highlighting their similarities to cuter, more popular animals.

Wonder how hard to laugh. (I’m in a computer lab at school.)

What would Jesus say? LOL. Wow. Even Jesus fed the people with a fish, oops, I mean a sea kitten. Paleeze. I love animals and the lil’ fishies too, but give me a serious break. God is the one that invented the food chain. He also asked us to be good stewards of what we do kill. It is the latter I need to remind myself of, especially as we get more and more removed from the original source of killing and feeding. These whackos are crackos.

Why? I think it is a fantastic idea! I love fish but my family doesn’t like it. But they like cats. This may be just the psychological edge I need.
I can see it now. Tomorrow we are having Siamese Lobster! On Monday how about Calico Cod?
Mmmmmmm, Kitten chowder!
Having friends over? Throw another kitten on the barbie!

I don’t know why no one likes PETA. I think they just boosted fish sales everywhere.

LOL. That is great! I would have joined you in a sec. Too bad they weren’t protesting potatoes being fried as well, I would have helped you out with a few of them too. :-D
