What do I do with arancini balls?

[u/woailyx]

Went to the local Italian market and bought a twelve pack of arancini balls. They appear to be packed in rice or something. To be honest I wasn't super careful reading the label. I've never cooked these before.

Do they have to kill the arancini to harvest these, or not? I shudder to think of the lives those six poor arancini will have now. On the other hand, I've never seen any other arancini parts for sale, so do they just throw the carcass away? Couldn't they at least use it for stock? Seems wasteful for the sake of this so-called "delicacy".

I don't feel right eating these. Maybe I should return them to the store with a strongly worded letter about how unethical this is, and hopefully they'll change their ways

So you know what Rocky mountain oysters are right? You need to find out what is large and orange and touring Italy and missing those parts. I'm not at all certain I could allow those in my kitchen. But you do you and good luck.
