Hmmmm... time for you to become a vegetarian!

But, we are rather brutal to those as well!
We take a fresh, living fruit and slice it into pieces with a large
sharp knife, or a beautiful little carrot or onion, then heartlessly
throw them into hot fat or water to be cooked! We don't even kill them
or anesthetize them!

Ok, just pulling your leg......

We humans consume other living things to live and survive. If I were to
feel guilty over ever bite of food, I'd starve to death. :-P

I suppose that milk, dairy products and infertile eggs are the least
brutal. At least you are not killing anything when you consume those.
Animal husbandry practices for the animals providing them might be
questionable, but I raise my own free range eggs.....

tend to get caught between the ears causing truth decay- so be sure
to use mental floss twice a day.
