Meet your meat???

Question

Hi ! I just recovered..jk from watching a TERRIBLE animal cruelty video. I also saw the video from i think the truth behind the KFC chickens at the site called kentuckyfriedcruelty.com, also some other cruel animal abuses from a site called torturedbytyson.com Have any of you people seen it and how was your reaction.

P.S: Going vegan !!! ^.^

Answer 1

I'm going there now BEFORE I see this video.

Keep in mind that not every "Documentary" is actaully honest. Many have been proven to be full of lies just to create a sensation. Not saying that this one is necessarily, just don't be too quick to judge based on a documentary!!!

Answer 2

I've been a vegetarian for about 10 years now, but I still don't trust anything PETA says.  They seem extremist to me, and I've heard a lot over the years about them lying or exaggerating their information.  So I guess my reaction was being glad I live in Canada, where our animal-cruelty laws are better, but I also expect that video had a lot of isolated incidents, and not standard practices.

But that in no way means you shouldn't become a vegetarian or a vegan, and I applaud you for trying.  Animal-cruelty aside (and it is cruel, just maybe not as cruel as PETA says), there are still health and environmental reasons to give up meat.

And I just have to say, if you do want to go vegan, it'll be nearly impossible to go straight from a meat-eater to a vegan, so if you're not a vegetarian already, that should be your first step, and you can work up to being a vegan.  Otherwise, it's quite unlikely the veganism will 'stick'.

Answer 3

LOL.  When I saw the video of "Meet Your Meat" I could not eat meat for a couple of days...  I did however just eat canned tuna fish and made sandwiches...  I also thought about going vegan but, our bodies really need to protein and we can't get that by just eating vegetables...

I did however choose wiser in eating meat.  I try to eat organic eggs and chicken whenever I buy meat at the store.  I avoided eating at KFC and Burgers at McDonalds and fast foods because they used those types of meats.

The only burger place I go to now is In N Out Burger because they use beef that have no antibiotics and 100% fresh.  Just choose wisely Good Luck

Answer 7

Okay those videos make me cringe and if you want to see more action, check out the P.E.T.A. website. Those cruel mother f*ckers need to stop testing out make-up and hair-dye on poor innocent animals. I am totally against animal cruelty and for animal rights. Those videos are super tragic...

Answer 8

Pass me a drumstick, please.

Answer 9

This kind of treatment is certainly intolerable, but there are slaughterhouses and companies that do their best to treat and slaughter animals humanely.  Read about Temple Grandin http://www.templegrandin.com/templehome.... and the work she has done with a number of companies (including fast food chains) to facilitate the more human treatment of consumed livestock.
