On the Declaration that Giraffes are Kosher

Jews outside of Africa, could we please not eat giraffes? Please, people? Could we please not eat them? Why are we even talking about eating giraffes? I don’t think we should eat giraffes. There are plenty of other things for us to eat, like free-range chicken or delicious tofu. We don’t need to eat giraffes. There’s no reason for us to eat giraffes.

Please. Don’t eat giraffes.
