New International Version (©1984)
Do not eat anything you find already dead. You may give it to an alien living in any of your towns, and he may eat it, or you may sell it to a foreigner. But you are a people holy to the LORD your God. Do not cook a young goat in its mother's milk.

No need to waste it. We can sell it to a "foreigner". But what if they are in the club too?
