I had a friend in high school tell me all about hot dogs. I refused to eat them for years. Then I got over myself.0

Just my opinion. I have not been a big meat eater for years. But a few years ago almost entirely quit eating beef and now I don't eat it at all. Once in a while I will have a little turkey, not much.
My reason for my feelings about beef is that a farmer put in a feedlot next to my house. If you ever want to be "cured" of wanting to eat beef, go check out a feedlot. Or go out into the country and check out how some people keep their animals. It might concern you a bit. Or it might not.
Keep in mind too, the cows die in fear, but have no choice but to step forward to get the hammer, each one in her turn. It ain't purdy! I want nothing to do with it, so refuse to eat the products of that industry now.
With turkeys I doubt it is a lot better. But I haven't been that up close to turkeys. I can't justify eating meat at all. But I am not very adept at getting protein on my anti inflammatory diet, so a couple of times a month I do eat a bit of turkey.
Not all farmers treat and keep their livestock in horrid conditions. I am surrounded by cattle and dairy farms that are all pastured and grass fed.
I actually get raw dairy and beef from 2 of these farmers. The best meat I have ever eaten.0 -
I guess it would be better to have soup made of chickens who got their throats sliced and left hanging to die from chocking on the blood, or being plucked and boiled while still alive. just saying. pretty much no humane method of slaughtering animals for human consumption
seems its the whole idea that the chickens had been dead for some x amount of time and began to rot. which would make me go hmm at anyone selling or trying to buy them.0 -
part of the reason i'm vegetarian. now i just need to back away from the eggs and cheese.0

Can You Guess What McDonald’s Food Item This Is? Say hello to mechanically separated chicken. It’s what all fast-food chicken is made – things like chicken nuggets and patties. In addition, the processed frozen chicken in the stores is made from it. Basically, the entire chicken is smashed and pressed through a sieve — bones, eyes, guts, and all. It comes out looking like this. There’s more: because it’s crawling with bacteria, it will be washed with ammonia, soaked in it, actually. Then, because it tastes gross, it will be reflavored artificially. Finally, since it is weirdly pink, it will be dyed with artificial color.
Not trying to defend the McNugget. But the truth is bad enough without adding untruths to the mix. For a more balanced view, check out: http://www.snopes.com/food/prepare/msm.asp0 -
I have a hard time believing that, simply because a big company like Campbell's probably doesn't need to go running around to all sorts of small farms collecting dead chickens for soup. That being said, very few things that go on in the meat & dairy industry surprise me anymore, and that's why I'm vegan. If you're concerned about where your food comes from, books & movies especially have made it more than easy to find out, despite attempts to keep things hush-hush. The information is all there, you just have to look at it.0

I'm in Canada, so that MIGHT make a difference,
but I find that very hard to believe....
we lived on a dairy farm and raised cattle and with the laws the way they are now you have to pay to have deadstock remove any dead animals... Any animal that dies on it's own away from a proper kill facility is unfit even for animal food.
Additionally laying hens medicated and innoculated and that would prohibit them from being used for human consumption for sixty days even at the end of their productivity....
I'm thinking urban myth0
