LoL, didn`t even know I had an accent..not in writing at least. Or well, I know I sound a bit like Thor Heyerdahl when I speak english, though, but I have just thought of it as an eccentricitiy. Glad you like it..

Taste a piece of properly hung meat and tell me that it's not 10 time better
Thanks for sending my mind straight to the gutter.

Hellrider - it was the "weins" instead of "veins" that made me think your accent cute! hehe!

Hellrider - I believe you to be right - I just remembered what was told me. I think the reason it came up is because I asked an elder WHY JW don't insist on Kosher meat, as some of the methods of slaughtering would actually prevent proper bleeding.
Crumpet -awww, and I was just going to ask Hellrider what that spirit is, err, the clear one you mix with tomato juice to make a Bloody Mary....

and the blood becomes thicker and literally sticks in the animals weins. There`s no such thing as a blood-free piece of meat.
I was told (by JW elder), that when animals are slaughtered kosher, only the upper part of the beast is eaten as this is well bled - the rest of the carcass is discarded (which is why Kosher meat is expensive).He is wrong. Though not all parts of the animal are ok to eat. Kosher meat involves multiple washings, etc. to get as much blood out as possible. This is from a Kosher processor:
The first step in this process occurs at the time of slaughter. As discussed above, shechitah allows for rapid draining of most of the blood.
The remaining blood must be removed, either by broiling or soaking and salting. Liver may only be kashered by the broiling method, because it has so much blood in it and such complex blood vessels. This final process must be completed within 72 hours after slaughter, and before the meat is frozen or ground.

If anybody wants a pointed up version with pictures, it will cost you literally $1000.’s of US dollars inadvance.
Please tell me the title. I could probably find a PDF version for free via P2P networking.

He expects me to fully enjoy what he created. Therefore, gimme a steak, medium rare!!!

Not even a single bloodcell, dried up and coagulated in the veins? The human (or animal) body has millions of tiny veins. For all these veins to be completely drained of blood (every bloodcell, that`s what the blood is, cells and water), the blood would have to be as "thin" and easyrunning as water, and even then it wouldn`t be possible to drain the body completely of it. There would be remaining blood cells. By broiling, soaking and salting, all you`re doing is cooking or destroying/damaging the remaining blood cells. But they`re still there. It`s not scientifically possible to remove every bloodcell from a carcass. You would have to split open every arterie and vein in the body, and wash it with chemicals. And I wouldn`t take the labelling on a Kosher processor as proof of anything...jews have liven in the delusion that their meat is bloodfree for thousands of years...remember, these bloodlaws were invented at a time that people actually BELIEVED that they got all the blood out of the animal. I tried to find a source on this, but couldn`t find one on the internet.

I remember in the 70's when the was a big to-do about not eating cornish game hens, because of the blood thing. Cornish game hens were popular then and it was hard to avoid them in restaraunts. I would think it would be easier, following their line of thought and also more consistent, to be vegetarians, or on the safest side regarding animal fluids even vegan. Then again, I never found consistency a part of the Witness doctrine :)
I don't know much about 7th Day Adventists - is this why they are vegetarians? I know that the roots of the 2nd Day Adventists are linked with the Witnesses - know even little about the 2nd Day folks. Are/ were the 2nd Day folks veggies?
