A little intense, but it is true that folks who want to be nice to chickens often assuage their consciences over their own personal shortcomings by being overly sensitive to the needs of an animal that is primarily programmed to eat and reproduce. Ever see a poor little hen, when a rooster is "in the mood" and she isn't? (I raised chicken at home for fun, eggs and personal enlightenment) Let the warm-fuzzy folks think about hen rape. (OF COURSE I'M KIDDING !) Many of these folks have no qualms about people hacking up human babies, without anesthesia, before they're born . Many are loath to work for anyone except a government entity, or a large, organized and regulated company, because they want to live in comfy cages with a livelihood guaranteed, by someone else, in exchange for production of some sort. Not so bad. Oops, is that humane? Let 's all just roam the wilds and fend for ourselves for a few months and see if that is what we prefer.
Why do we pay a lot of attention to species that often get eaten alive, by predators in the wild, having to find their own food, often starving and freezing in the process, at nature's whim? I actually prefer a predominantly vegan regimen because I think it might be healthier, but not for feely-good animal loving reasons? Love all animals, especially your fellow humans, young, old and in-between. Buy what you like to eat, and let others do the same.
i have no clue to what this article means. there are several seperate subjects being reported and they are all jumbled into one bad story. i work for whole foods and we are laughing at this story at the moment. we just want to sell good food that is good for you. but most want to make this all political. just enjoy the good food that we offer. high prices or not. just be happy.
