Masterchef moral dilemma

As a Vegetarian it has crossed my mind on numerous occasions that maybe I shouldn't enjoy watching cookery programmes. But I can't help it..I absolutely LOVE them..particularly Masterchef..I am somewhat obsessed. Just because I choose not to eat meat doesn't mean I can't enjoy watching minor celebrities (as it is Celebrity Masterchef at the moment) playing with the animals remains. That was my belief until last night anyway, when I witnessed Christine Hamilton savagely hack away at a pigs head with what can only be described as some sort of machete during the Masterchef Finals. This scene did make me feel pretty ill, which on a positive note reminded me that my veggie beliefs are still very much in tact, so yay for that..however it did make me rethink my obsession with cooking based programmes..Thanks Hamilton for destroying one of my only enjoyments in life..
Saying that though, obviously I watched the rest of the programme (after recovering from the horrific butchery images)..and I shall most likely tune in for the final tonight! Oh and I still want Christine Hamillton to win, but thats beside the point..
