Fire fighters rescue piglets and later eat them as sausages

[Catherine]

I had no idea how to tittle this thread so I called it  as it happened.
I started to read the article about fire fighters saving piglets and I thought how sweet it was and then I read on and found out they later ate them as sausages and it felt creepy. It just feels off somehow. Why rescue them at all?

It just doesn't feel right somehow. Even if you are not a vegetarian it still doesn't seem right to eat the piglets you rescued.
Does anyone else feel a little uncomfortable about the whole thing?
