Re: Anthony Bourdain
I’m pretty sure hunter gatherer societies don’t give a fuck if their methods of consumption are humane.
What a stupid fucking thing to get hung up on in the wake of his death.

Re: Anthony Bourdain
I have. And it's hard to watch. But it's also important for people to know and understand where their food comes from. If you aren't willing to kill an animal, to know and understand that an animal has to die for you to eat it, then you really shouldn't eat meat.verb_to_trust wrote:You guys seen the episode right?

There isn't a kind way to murder an animal.

Re: Anthony Bourdain
There are humane ways to kill animals for food. Bourdain going full tribal mode in that episode was gross and unnecessary.

Of course there is a spectrum.tragabigzanda wrote:I've never seen the episode in question, but surely we can all agree there is a spectrum of humane husbandry and slaughter? And based solely on what's been posted today, I'm picturing a spear being thrown at a hog, which I would put on the low end of the humane slaughter spectrum.durdencommatyler wrote: There isn't a kind way to murder an animal.

I just rewatched it. It wasn't as jarring as I remember. He seemed to want the cameras to see his abs though.

Re: Anthony Bourdain
My brother and I crawled the streets of Istanbul looking for Durumzade, and on our first night there ended up having one of the most magical food and cultural experiences of my life because we couldn't find it. The next night we finally did and enjoyed some of the best food that's ever passed my lips.
The world needs more Anthony Bourdains in this divisive time, not less. This one is heartbreaking.

Re: Anthony Bourdain
Take this for what it’s worth. Both Bourdain and Chang recently visited my city for their respective TV shows. Of the two, I instantly liked Chang’s better since it glorified our crawfish...something totally in this city’s wheelhouse. By comparison, the recent Parts Unknown episode garnered a ton of detractors in this city to the tune of “why didn’t he go here? Why didn’t he go there? Grumble grumble”tragabigzanda wrote:The worst part of all of this is that now David Chang's media takeover will be total.
That, counterintuitively, is why the loss of Bourdain will be felt in this industry. His shows, his writing, his whole public persona was about getting out of your comfort zones and echo chambers and trying new things.
