I am doing this. It is difficult. And it makes restaurants suck.
And let's be real, SF, Portland, etc might one day reach 50% humane meat... maybe. What's the plan for telling the "average" American that a dozen eggs cost $12? And some of them are weird colors?
- ndespres 13y agoMy farm-fresh dozens cost $6 in the greater NYC area. I'm only in my first year of farming as a startup but I'm finding that it is profitable and enjoyable to serve fresh, local food to people without gouging them for it.
- lprubin 13y agoIt's going to be a difficult challenge. But I think this bill proves how terrified the Meat Industry is of people finding out what it's really like inside of a factory farm. So many people truly think that their meat and eggs comes from local farmer Bob who loves his chickens and the farm has been in his family for 100 years. The reason for that is that that is how it really was for centuries. People think that now the big companies just buy it from the local farmer and serve as middle man. Only in the last 30 - 40 years has it changed over to being 99% big aggro (at least in US). Big Farm definitely thinks the word getting out will hurt their profits so I think fighting this bill and getting the word out is the first step. I'm all ears for other ideas.
