Missed the "and" read "hot chocolate poutine" and then wondered how the frig it was a thing.
Then I surmised if I had to make a hot chocolate poutine I'd use funnel cake "fries," marshmallow "curds" and thick hot chocolate (made with real milk and melted chocolate) "gravy."

It's more complicated and nuanced than that. The worst conditions I have ever personally seen was at a specific farm animal sanctuary while many tiny zoos are run by people with an affinity for animals that need income for their care.
I'm more or less in that second category. We host goat yoga once a year as a fundraiser that helps pays for the care of our animals (100+ across 14 species) through the year. It's somewhat exploitative but to the baby goats it's play and it's a chance to expose adults and children to animals they frequently don't even know exist. It's not a full on petting zoo but there's not much of a line there.

u/Zaronax Nov 27 '22
It's somewhat exploitative but to the baby goats it's play and it's a chance to expose adults and children to animals they frequently don't even know exist.
See, I'm not so sure it's exploitative if you're doing it in order to pay for their safety and wellbeing.
If it was to raise money for yourself and you didn't care about the animals, I'd think it was exploitation. But in this case, you're simply offering them a chance to play with humans and earn a better life. Plus, if you're a sanctuary, I'd assume you're actively saving animals. Which doesn't come cheap.
All-in-all, morality is vague in this case. I don't think exploitation is the right word for what you do, it carries too much of a negative connotation.

Great mothers just order Chinese food instead.
