"Like Poodle Burgers at a dog show"
This report from Reuters explains:
I absolutely refuse to make any jokes based on the notion of "fish empathy."An animal rights group has called on one of the largest aquariums in the United States to stop serving fish to its visitors, likening the practice to grilling up "poodle burgers at a dog show."
"It's easy to think of fish as swimming vegetables but of all the places in the country where fish should get a fair shake it's an aquarium," said Karin Robertson, manager of the Fish Empathy Project for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.
It's hard to be a fish. You have to endure the hackneyed stereotype respecting your utter ignorance of water. There are all those hateful cartoons of you swimming through a sea of butter, trailing bread crumbs.
And I haven't had a decent poodle burger in a dog's age.
