You might see a video of dog slaughterhouses on your FB timeline now and again. You are aware of it's death. The disparity is noticeable but not major, you can enjoy the good food quite happily. Let's say you gain the same physical benefits either way.
But another important question: is the dog tortured or abused or in some way grossly mistreated before dying? Or does it die a swift, painless death?
