The Sandwich Alignment Chart
Sandwiches used to be just two pieces of bread with something good between them. Some combinations were so good that they became classics. We've seen here that when the internet got involved, sandwiches became radical and outrageous. And every restaurant wants a good one as their signature. Now the different combinations of bread and filling are all over the place, so it's a good thing we have a handy chart to make sense of it all.

Humans are f*@%ed. People say "boo-hoo" to oily animals on the gulf and their own dead pets, and feed cute lambs at petting zoos... But then chop sheep up, eat their flesh and tear out their entrails to dress up to look like... A snake.
Please stop eating meat, everyone. Meat is animals, even if it's delicious. Jesus.
That said, I'm sure this dish is absolutely revolting, but I see nothing particularly offensive about dressing up a dish one is about to consume anyhow.
As someone who's worked in all aspects of the meat industry besides packing, organic grass-fed cows live better lives than most people. Even sheep and lambs live pretty freaking lush lives for the most part. Non-grass fed cows live some bizarre and mediocre lives, but for the most part they're treated alright and are fairly healthy. Their meat isn't exactly good for you though, and they'd die because of their diet if they weren't slaughtered at the age they are.
The US is starting to adopt EU standards for hog farming (i.e. only X pigs per square yard, MUST have mental stimulation toys accessible, grated floors can absolutely not be able to allow hooves of any size through, must be hosed down every day), and pigs grow up to 50% less/week if they're stressed, so even if for purely monetary reasons, it's in everyone's best interest to treat them well.
Veal calves are still treated crap. Chickens are treated the worst of all. Turkeys aren't much better from what I hear, but I've never actually been to a turkey farm so I don't know what normal conditions for them are like.
Long story short: PETA is full of crap. Small family farms generally treat their meat animals the best. Generally. Humans are made to eat other animals as a minor but important part of our diet. I don't eat meat except for once or twice every other month. Americans eat way too much meat for the most part.
And that snake is still cute.
Those entrails are a bit weird though. Creative sure, but intestines just doesn't sound very appetizing.
That said, we are omnivores, and we are meant to eat a balanced diet that includes meat and veg. PETA, an organization with no respect for humanity and no understanding of animals, is little more than a hypocritical organization that supports domestic terrorism.
