“Consider the Lobster” by David Foster Wallace was a very interesting biased read. I did enjoy the refresher on inhumane practices on animals, but I don’t agree with everything Wallace preached. However, he did a great job in explaining the consequences of eating live lobsters. But, I do think that he should have talked about other animals as well, and to not use the same gruesome imagery of the lobsters. In my opinion, people should be able to choose whether or not veganism is for them without being judged. Overall, Wallace did not convince me not to eat lobster, due to his weak points.
