- polotics 9y agoWell, meat is murder. Eat less, live longer.
- grzm 9y agoPlease don't move discussion onto well-trodden, general ideological grounds unless you have something truly new to say. There's plenty to discuss on the specifics of the submitted piece.
- erikb 9y agoSame feeling here.
- x0x0 9y agocows being raised for meat aren't exactly healthy either. Corn is not what they're designed to eat, but it is what we feed them. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/meat/interviews/pollan.html http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/meat/interview...
- fil_a_del_fee_a 9y agoI just spent a half-hour reading this very well written article. Very cut and dry explanation of the livestock system. Highly recommend everyone to read. Interesting tidbit: "But a lot of it has to do with the way we grow our food, and the fact that we mix 100 different cows in a single burger. We never used to do that. The butcher used to take the scraps from that one animal and make his hamburger right in front of your eyes. ... Now, you get one infected carcass, and that meat can spread all around the country, because we have this centralized national system."
- kozak 9y agoAll living creatures occasionally get sick. You don't see a lot of health issues in your meat only because of quality checks on the way of the meat to you, and also partially because the animals that you eat are young.
