how come there is a discrimination between animals that can be eaten and can not be eaten?

Question

like how come we eat pig, cows, chicken, fish, lamb, etc while we can't eat dolphins, dogs, cats, horses, turtles, etc? I believe that that is discrimination. It should be we eat them all or we can't eat them all? How do we humans distinguish which ones can be eaten and which ones can't? Is it because of their emotional closeness to humans like dogs, cats, dolphins? or is it if an animal/creature has a brain or is intellectual then we can't eat them? then that is like discriminating bright people to dumb people? you see what I mean? You know how we promote equality and non descrimination? How bout the other living organisms in this world? I am not saying that we should eat cute little dogs and dolphins.. but where is the equality of life? Who eats who? Isn't by choosing which ones could be eaten and which ones couldn't, we assume godly supremacy? Who will defend those who are powerless??.. think about it...

We eat what tastes good? I doubt that. Have anyone tried dolphins?

Answer 1

Don't be all uppity about this either...
I think we should eat everything including each other.

Answer 2

Different strokes for different folks. People have been known to eat many of the unbelievable things that aren't normal. In time after you've resolved many questions about how things really operate, then you just may back off some. Like dairy products are bad for you and those things come from cows and cows do not jump over the moon.
