I grabbed this book the other day and in a way, since I had already watched a few documentaries knew about the hidden-secretive world of raising food for consumption. But like anything; we need to read books like this in order to understand more about how animals are being treated. The ethics that are being used as I put it "harvesting" defenseless animals for consumption.
We have gone half way into becoming more vegans then anything and sure I can get my protein from plant based foods its still important to eat some beef or poultry. Its just important that you understand how to read labels and find the companies that treat animals humanly.
I rather like as stated in the book-referring to Socrates in Plato's Republic. "Bread, cheese, vegetables, olives, figs, and moderation of wine." This sounds like an excellent daytime snack!
