- Interpretation / Claim:
I believe Mr. Foer, perhaps unintentionally makes a claim that vegetarianism is a higher form of living to aspire toward. - Question: “Why?” In context, Foer closes with the recollection of his desperate and starving grandmother refusing to eat pork offered from a local farmer at her darkest hour. Why? It wasn’t kosher. “If nothing matters there’s nothing left to save”.
