How do you feel about the slaughter of cute furry lambs?
Baby goats?
Calfs?
piglets?
all animals, some just more domesticated than others.

Then how DO you judge the merits of a life form?

Many "civilized" countries would be mortified that you eat cow, or pig. They may or may not find you backward for not eating offal, or pigeon, horse, dog, or various bushmeat.
Food is cultural, not moral from a bigger sense.
Learn a little about the world. If you're truly vegan (not a 5 guys burger eating "vegetarian"), I can understand your offence. But the key is: if you're eat ANY mat, you need to take a step back an think hard about your position, because it sounds like an ignorant one, on the world scale.
Many European countries think the US is uncivilized with all the gun violence, lack of healthcare, and no federally mandated vacation policy.

Here's the thing: in the U.S., we do not eat dogs. It is not socially acceptable (at best). This is why people here are appalled. IMO, rightfully so. The issue I have is that the Chinese, whenever something culturally sensitive comes to the forefront, they pretend it does not exist. They do not want to be faulted, or seen in a negative light. Is this not irony?
I understand in other places the culture partakes in different behaviors. Here, we do not eat dogs. We are in the U.S., for anyone who is wondering.

Are you a vegetarian OP? If not you have no business being horrified--you kill animals every day.

Yeah, knowing what I know - I am no the least bit surprised. The feeling of superiority is a self destructive thing, at best.

French eat horses too.
Different countries live differently and eat different foods. I'm sure other cultures think our eating habits are appalling as well.

I don't support factory farming, either.
And I don't judge the merits of a life form by its intelligence relative to another life form.
