That is sooooooo wrong! I just learned that from my friend. When she saw me buy white albertson's eggs she explained that I should buy the natural brown eggs that say that they dont harm the animals. It's a little bit more money but worth it.

I believe it does, I'll double check with the person that told me in fact you should ask her about it her name is Jennie and her live journal is Jmonserud.

Have you read "My Year Of Meat" by Ruth Ozeki? I could not recommend it highly enough.

no I have not. I will definatly look into it. I was gonna look for the book "the science of vegetarianism" because it sounds interesting. Are you a vegetarian?

Meaning I'm the third generation vegetarian in my family and my two kids are too and my grandaughter also. The greatest thing about travelling in South India was that the people are so overwhelmingly vegetarian that if a restaurant offers meat or fish, it's marked "non-vegetarian restaurant". Although the vast majority of people in the world actually live on vegetarian diets, the trend is going the other way because of the association of meat with feasts and abundance, so when a family can afford it, say in China's heartland, the meat dishes pile up high and the prestige of that family in the village increases. Fortunately, people who really think about it, will associate meat with living animals (especially children) and will be revolted by the idea of devouring another sentient being. I don't lecture people about it, but the thought of being devoured is very powerful and everybody gets upset when a human or even a pet suffers such a fate.

Agreed. The last sentence is what makes no sense to me:
[the thought of being devoured is very powerful and everybody gets upset when a human or even a pet suffers such a fate.

I agree with what this statement says but the rest of the world doesnt realize that domestic pets are claimed domestic by morale of the country. In other places they will eat cats and dogs and Americans will think "wow that is cruel and sick" But it other places they wont kill cows because they think thats cruel and sick. So how can one put a label on an animal as a pet, when they are all living breathing creatures?
