    I buy meat from local farmers who treat their animals well, when I choose to eat meat. Most of the time I just don’t eat meat.

    You won’t take cheese and milk from me tho.

      What do you think happens to dairy cows after they stop producing milk? Your cheese and milk still fuels the system. It’s fine if you want to do that but don’t pretend they’re not interconnected systems.

        Nevermind cows who aren’t producing milk anymore, Milk cows need to have a calf every year to give milk. Milk is essentially non-vegetarian from an ethical point of view.

      Interesting that no one sees themselves as the 1% yet simultaneously hold the belief they eat the 1% of animals that are not factory farmed.
