If you enjoy fast food, particularly the delicious meat, you may not want to read this journal.
I just finished watching Fast Food Nation. Do not watch this movie meat lovers! You will be disgusted beyond belief....
I like my steak very rare and juicy, but I guess now I could saw I like it rare and juicy with a side of feces...
The Momma Ho is coming back onto town tonight and she's gonna makes steak for dinner and for the first time in my life, I am going to say no thank you.
If you are a veggie go ahead and watch the movie, you might really enjoy the scenes of the kill floor where the cows are being skinned and dissected. Skinned cow-head with eyeballs intact anyone? How about some cow kidney? This is the movie to watch!
I am so disturbed... good movie, but so so gross. Makes me think about what I'm putting in my body....

(e:leetee) I do get how you don't get why we eat a cow and have a Cat as a pet. I will admit that it is kinda strange. Not to mention that different cultures have different pets and animals that you can't kill and religions also. Hey some place they eat dog. When things really get weird is when someone on a farm has animals they raise and then have to slaugter them. I have heard that sometimes if they get like a favorite pig then they will keep that one a live and kill the others. I would think you would have to keep some of the animals alive just for breeding.
The problem with our food supply is that it is way too centralized, particularly with animals and their products. In grade school, we learn about slave ships where humanity was packed shoulder to shoulder in suffocating ship quarters. We learned that many of them died from disease. We do the same to the animals we eat. Driving down California from San Fransisco to Los Angeles I saw miles and miles of cows packed shoulder to shoulder on grassless fields. The difference is that we have engineered antibiotics to keep animals alive in unlivable conditions. It is no different with plant crops. Miles of corn does not exist in nature, yet our farms engineer this through petro-fertilizers, crop engineering, and pesticides.
Smaller, local, decentralized farms with a variety of crops and species requires much less intervention and, ultimately, fewer chemicals that end up in our bodies. That means that certain meat will be more expensive, but that means that all meats will be better tasting, more healthy, and without the massive carbon footprint.
To end on a personal note, I have no moral problem eating a cat.
you're so right, (e:joshua), eating meat does mean butchering animals. and i have thought for many years now that if we had to kill the animals ourselves, a lot more people would consider being a vegetarian.
i know i am a freak about this, but when i found out what meat was, i just could not fathom eating it and could not see the moral difference between my cat and a cow.
now that i know i don't eat shit, too... well, i am comforted by that thought. thanks, (e:lilho).
