I watch it often, so far ive watched the young pigs, veal, kid goat. I wouldn't eat meat if I couldn't accept the way it was killed, but the only thing I found hard to see was how far they hacked into the calves neck, but at the end of the day, I enjoy eating it and I'd be a hypocrite if I couldn't bear watching how it was killed and complain about it.

If there werent butchers and slaughtermen and women to do it for us then we'd have to do it ourselves. All I have got out of the programme is a great appreciation for those people, because its quite a gruesome job, particularly the actually slitting of the throat anyway.

Nothing that I didn't expect on the show, nothing that I could say made me want to cry or be upset, just the throat slashing that I find a bit stomach churning, but I think after several viewings of the show I'm getting used to it, so its not that bad.
