Cruel.

agree re yuk objects

[Old_Geezer]

I have a leather belt. I don't think it's bad taste. I approve of using as much as possble from animals killed for food. Anything else is disrespectful, not to mention wasteful.

And antlers are shed, why not use them ?

[sandyRoe]

You have a point but turtles don't shed their shells, nor elephants their tusks.

[Zeuhl]

I think using Prawn Balls is disgusting

[sandyRoe]

Then you'll hardly be a fan of fish fingers?

[petal54]

the use of leather is a by-product,+ other materials are available

[jno]

they do when they die, sandyRoe.

Are alligator shoes in worse taste than leather ones, Tilly?

[Octavius]

Just 'animal by-products' really. Terms are usually specific to the use (like in the examples you have given).
