The one time I had opportunity to kill a bird with my own hands and eat it, I ate it with far greater respect and less waste than any meat I'd ever even before or since. I wish there were an efficient way to bring the consumer closer to the animal in everyday Western society. I doubt that we would consume less meat, but we would certainly have more respect for it.
- BrandoElFollito 1y agoI live in France in a comfortable place with anything I need to eat and drink. In that context, if I had to kill the animals I eat I would absolutely turn vegetarian because I like animals very much and the minced meat I get at the store does not stare at me. I put the context first because such a change would require accrss to varied vegetables etc. The situation wipes be drastically different in a world where you do not have this access or need to fight for food.
