I am pleased to see this shared. > Mance may overstate his case, but he is spot on to make us confront the horrible truth that the vast majority of us are supporting animal suffering every time we shop It took me a long time to understand that there was a link in the actual world between the delicious food I was enjoying and horrible animal suffering that went in to producing it. I used to make fun of vegans and never for a moment took their position seriously. I couldn't imagine how anyone could voluntarily give up cheese. Now I see that something as seemingly benign as cheese isn't made in an ethical vacuum. It's very often the product of a system that creates animal suffering. I would encourage anyone who was in my position to confront the realities of what goes in to producing what you eat and consider trying a vegan diet and advocating for animal welfare.
