If it’s about cruelty, it might be time to eat better meat. I eat all local and organic meat and produce. The cows I eat? I know the lives they live before slaughter and I feel no shame in supporting the farms that give them those lives.
All it takes is more people fighting for better meat and the companies will oblige. They’ll come up with their own promises of humane treatment (with their own markups, I’m sure) and they will be able to be held to them even if they lie at first.
The real problem isn’t eating meat, it’s eating McDonalds hamburgers not once caring where they came from or what’s in them.
Again, just if it’s about cruelty and federal oversight of free range laws. If you just don’t want to eat meat, don’t eat meat (but watch your A, B12, Iron, Zinc, etc)
