He always refers to himself and his wife and his child as "vegetarian." And what follows, as you might imagine, is his support of "ethical meat" (for those who insist on eating animals). This is not a book about animal rights, and some might say Foer gets animal rights wrong as his only reference is PETA. He never says he is.

And the wife says that one thing the family does is eat less meat and eggs (and they raise the animals on their land), but even that is glossed over. I think those are the only references to diet.

The topic was the concept of humans as predators, or hunters, or really, eaters of meat, and I was discussing the many ways in which people misconceived this notion.

Burial vaguely refers to Blade & Sheath as an “American farmhouse ale”, but also claims that it’s “cut from the cloth of the Wallonian countryside” – the homeland of the saisons – so we know we’re dealing with a domestic interpretation of that Belgian product of farm brewing.
