Not only are these places pits of despair for the animals, they wreak havoc on the environment, poisoning the water and air, but they are also unsafe for human workers, AND produce meat that is not safe, either. They are all around bad as far as I am concerned, which is why I don't support them. All of the meat we eat at home comes from local, organic, free-range producers who give a damned about their animals--they love them and care for them the way I was taught to by my grandparents. I do understand not eating meat, though, and I applaud you for your decision not to do so. If you cannot--then you shouldn't.

Lately I’ve been reading about a strange phenomenon where people will happily eat meat as long as nothing about it reminds them that the meat actually came from an animal. They eat things that have had all bones, skin and funky innards carefully trimmed away, or have been transformed into sausage or hamburger. They don’t want any reminders that the steak or hamburger or whatever was once a living being that was up and walking around. They don’t want to think about blood, butchery, and guts. There are children who are convinced that milk comes from…a box. Or the store. Certainly not any kind of animal. This is not an attitude I think much of. I could rant about it here, but Barbara Fisher over at Tigers and Strawberries did it a lot better. [...] […] What am I to make of the American way, then, of meat eating?
