It's not as satisfying. Part of the pleasure of eating comes from mastication and flavor, and the other part comes from SWALLOWING. This is neurochem.

I think this is an important tangent we've taken here.
Why is pleasure important in eating, at all? Isn't the main purpose to fuel our bodies? Don't get me wrong, I enjoy food, but pleasure is probably the fourth or fifth most important factor to me when I'm choosing what to eat. A number of people admit in this thread that they eat animals because they taste good. That is their sole justification. I guess it just strikes me as terribly childish and undisciplined, to weigh pleasure so heavily in your decision-making.
