    I agree completely! I know the animals were roadkill but it’s the "indignity" of the displayed animals as a wrapping for a beer. And it’s the callous reason for the purchase of the beer by one individual: "The reason I purchased the beer was solely because it came in a taxidermic case," he said. "The humor of the packaging is what persuaded me to commit to the purchase, besides the only other taxidermic 'thing' I have is a jackalope."

    I have had times when a nice beer sounded REALLY good. But, at that price I can honestly say I'd rather go thirsty. Not to mention there is just something creepy about the idea of drinking something that I just poured out of the mouth of roadkill.

    I know, it sounds a bit hypocritical but I do not own a sporran that has animal fur on it. I don’t begrudge those who do own full mask sporrans or sporrans with fur; I just choose not to own that type of sporran. My sporrans are simple cow hide in which the hide used in the sporran was derived as a bi-product (I assume) of meat processing.

    No opinion formed, just making a wise crack in good fun.
    I do have 1 fur sporran that was a gift, but I don't typically seek it our either.

    I find it disgusting, and I think most people will, however if there are enough people willing to spend exorbitant amounts of money for disgusting things (and look around you; you can't legislate taste or intelligence!) then there will continue to be this sort of tacky, insulting nonsense. Personal opinion, folks, but there it is.
