factory farming is piggy.

what's grosser than gross? animals squeezed into small spaces so that companies can get more bang for the buck.

growing up, i never knew what meat really was, let alone where it came from. i wish i had known years ago - maybe if i did i would have chosen not to eat it back then. it took years of weaning off meat and learning that i didn't HAVE to have animal protein - that veggie, nut, grain, fruit, bean, and soy protiens carry just as much amino acids.

i used to think vegans/veggies were weirdo hippies - how could anyone give up chicken soup? isn't it for the soul? easy when you learn where that meat really comes from....and do some real soul searching.
