There is also animal testing. To test a shampoo, for example, they apply a concentrated version of it to animal eyes and see how irritated they get. And there is regular farming. To extract milk from cows, we steal their calves, making cows cry for days. Male calves are killed and disposed or turned into meat and female calves are kept to repeat the cycle. In the case of female chicken, we make them live in tiny cages their entire life where they cannot even move. The "cage-free" chicken are just chicken that spent their entire lives in crowded warehouses where they also do not have space. "free-range" chicken have a non-zero outdoor access but there is no guarantee of how much that is, they still spend most of their life in a crowded warehouse. Male chickens are killed by being ground alive right after birth. The process of killing animals during slaughter sometimes just stuns the animal, leaving the animal alive to experience being cut open and dissected. Slaughterhouse workers kill 250 cows per day each. Some foods are especially inhumane, like foie gras, which is made by force feeding ducks or geese so that their liver gets enlarged. The repeated force feeding process causes lesions that cause the animals to develop necrotic tissue in their sternum. Many animals from pet shops come from puppy mills where their mothers are repeateadly forced to give birth until they develop cancer. And there's much more. We are horrible to animals but very good at marketing. We are even horrible to other humans too: child labor, sweatshops, etc. Morally, paying for these things is equivalent as doing it yourself.
