I ate a steak for dinner from a local farm where the cows get to just walk around and eat all they want, my milk is usually raw, my eggs are local and unwashed, and the freezer is full of deer that spent their lives in the woods until the very last second, and even that is a cleaner death than nature would give.

I’m handling my meat consumption pretty well I would say.

I am hoping to get into some kind of poultry other than chickens soon to have access to meat.

My chicken meat consumption does still come from the store unfortunately.

Not for long with this new virus going around ;-)

I shouldn't laugh but it's astonishing how rude they are being.

Like most problems with modern agriculture, you can avoid most of the negative consequences y going with a local farm that takes care of their animals.

Good living conditions for the animals not only make for higher quality products, but also much healthier animals.

With less animals, they actually get the care and cleaning they should instead of rushing through everything.

Yes, I eat and drink animal products, but I do my best to find places where the animals aren’t mistreated.

It’s a positive feedback loop.

The more I purchase and get into to, the more connections I find, and so on.
