I think it is right to eat meat, just that animals should be in their natural (as possible) environment. Meat should cost more. We should eat it less rather than expect it with every meal.

Why would you want to? Why should you need to? Good chicken needs nothing added to it bar a bit of salt and pepper... maybe a bit of thyme rubbed into the skin.

Most beeves don't get to live 12 years. But of all the meat animals, they probably have the best lives....
Unless they are in one of those grain feed lots. I've seen them here in Australia. They build a small enclosure to hold so many cows they have no room to lie down. And if they could they wouldn't want to because their manure gets so deep its up to their hocks (?), like a foot or more. It stinks to high heaven and looks really uncomfortable for the cows. Just standing around in their own shit for weeks on end while they fatten up on grain based 'feed'.
Kind regards, Katkinkate
