I believe that the disconnect between the source of our food and what is on our plates is the biggest issue. People see a piece of meat nicely wrapped in a supermarket and they don't question how it got there. Why would they? We are brainwashed all the time by the mass media. Seeing happy cows chewing fresh grass, happy chicken running around, pigs in the mud.. but is this true? I've seen somewhere that many kids think that milk is coming from the box in the supermarket. Is this right? Why don't they know the truth? We are led in the direction that the biggest players want us to go. UNLESS we start investigating ourselves..

I was also raised on a farm. We raised our animals and grew our veggies and fruits as well. I learned to appreciate the source of my food while many people never get to see it. And this is sad. The mass production makes is so easy for us to purchase everything we can even think of right now. How is that possible? How is it possible that so many supermarkets are stocked with so many products each day of the week? The toll is being paid somewhere else.. and as you said this is not only in regards to animals but all other products as well. The waste that we produce could feed so many people who have nothing to eat.. Taking only what you need and not any more is crucial in my opinion.

It is important to question what is right or wrong. If you do this you're on the right way :)
