You do realize this reads like the prolog for a serial killer novel. Innocent couple with a slightly odd hobby attracts the attention of a league of serial killers?

    Spoken like someone who would rather their meat come plastic wrapped on a foam tray, where they can pretend that these exact things didn't happen in a much less humane way for their convenience.

    I know you're just trying to be funny, but it's like drawing an equivalence between grilling meat and torture.

    Almost all meat is factory farmed. Almost all meat animals are killed at a fraction of their natural lifespan. Almost all meat is procured unsustainably, at the cost of the destruction of the biosphere.

    Sure, grilling meat is not equivalent to torture, but in >99% of cases it absolutely is.
