Kill Cone: Volume 1
November 22nd, 2008This is the right answer, although I don’t know that this is a particularly large-scale turkey farm or that locally grown turkeys are bled out in a more humane fashion. I’m patiently awaiting the day when “Sarah Palin Makes Ill-Advised Attempt to Advance Career Following Run For Vice President” stops being newsworthy.
While I can think of better photo ops, this is kind of a silly uproar. How exactly do folks think their food gets to them? Your t-bone is not born in shrink wrap. If this upsets you, you may want to visit a slaughter-house- you will never eat meat again. Truth be told, I would prefer if everyone visited a major slaughterhouse, because once they see how gross it is, they might start to support their local farmers for their meat.

A commenter at Balloon Juice notes that the proper term for the device employed here is a Kill Cone which is sort of awesome.
