Good point, and I think most people are far removed from where their food comes from so they don’t think much about it. I have killed chickens for food in the recent past, and our neighbor occasionally butchers a pig in their yard (I live in rural Mexico). It is a messy, unpleasant affair that is quite far removed from a McChicken or McRib sandwich.
Yes, issues we don’t think much about. A while back I posted an article I read about the importance of diversifying our diets. I also think buying local and in season is an underestimated good. So, I’ve been trying to move that direction. I could live without meat, but I would suffer without dairy and eggs.
