No need to rage against the gaucheness of Americans who, in fact, have embraced many foods:
The cuisine is among the most labor intensive in the world. And yet Americans are unwilling to pay beyond a certain, and decidedly low, price point.

The web site formally known as People Enjoy Eating Tasty Animals (PEETA) is one of my favourite web sites.
When called PEETA in 1996 or so, this web site was the subject of a pioneering intellectual property court case by PETA.
The web site is a resource for those who enjoy eating meat, wearing fur and leather, hunting, and the fruits of scientific research. More on animal testing later with the help of Penn and Teller.

BTW, why are people not allowed to eat tasty animals, but other animals are allowed to eat each other if they can catch them. Should carnivores be required to become vegans? That would be a death sentence for them.
Utopia, you are standing in it!
