Eating pets after they've died

No way could I eat my pet after it died. A pet is like a family member and I certainly wouldn't eat my brother after he died. It doesn't matter that the pets don't have the same intelligence as humans. They were once our friends. As a child we had chickens which had to be fed before we killed them for eating. My grandmother always told us never to name the chickens or become attached, because one day they would become dinner.
