Honestly even if we just cut out pork....this animal is as smart as dogs and just as social and loving.

Cows are social and loving, too. And don't get me started on octopodes!

I'm far from vegetarian but I've completely stopped eating octopus. Those things are freaky smart and honestly most people/restaurants can't cook them well enough to even have a flimsy selfish justification for eating them.

I gotta respect anybody using the proper pluralization.

That works great as an adjective. Don’t be such an octopussy.

Pigs definitely are and you shouldn't eat them, but intelligence is a weird way to judge whether a life deserves consideration.

The only pertinent question is surely if they suffer.

I agree, we should start eating dogs.
