I'm not the OP (nor am I vegetarian), but I draw the line at food that can only be achieved through the suffering of animals. Therefore, I refuse to eat and watch cooking shows that use meat like foie gras and veal. Not sure about calf brains, I've never seen it used on a show or on a menu, but I can understand why someone would draw the line where OP did.

AYRT

That was probably poor word choice on my part. I was having a hard time figuring out how to phrase it. More like, I know the controversy surrounding it and I can't be sure the animal was not raised in that horrible way. I tend to avoid eating young animal meat in general just because it makes me feel sad that they didn't get to live a longer life.

Yes, chickens raised in an industrialized fashion, their beaks and feet cut off and barely fitting into metallic cages are probably grateful for a few years of extra life? Er... that was your point or did I miss something?

Let me add that in France you can also buy young chickens (as opposed to the commonly aged adult) so the flesh is more tender... How terrible, how inhumane! Compared to the US where most male chickens are simply killed out of the egg, since very few males are needed to fertilize the eggs of lots of females and therefore male chickens are considered 'superfluous'. Are you factoring such things into your conclusions?

Maybe you should educate yourself on these matters before worrying about the treatment of various animals, because it sounds like nobody briefed you adequately on the 21st century.

da

Uhhh so you're saying because those chickens have bad lives, it's more humane to kill them quickly?

the entirety of factory farming needs to stop.

Which half of the population would you choose starve to death?

..you do realize that raising meat, including in factory farming, takes MANY TIMES the resources that raising vegetables/grains does, and that's why so many environmentalists are vegetarian in the first place? To, you know, reduce their carbon footprints and encourage the efficient use of resources?

If we did away with factory farming and used the grains those animals consume to instead feed people, we could pretty much stop world hunger.

Please be nicer. That person was being perfectly reasonable and pleasant and there's no need to talk like this to make your point. You are attacking the individual and not the argument and that is not a nice or effective thing to do. It only makes people mad and sad.

This is a way out of date reference to veal crates. Veal is not necessarily produced this way.

[(Anonymous)]

Not necessarily, but according to recent news reports in Canada, it still is in some cases. If the industry doesn't want that practice used to malign them, then stop the practice. If individual farmers still persist in it, then people can still complain about it.

[(Anonymous)]

The calf is separated from the cow after birth and is raised on milk replacement(?), resulting in a very light meat. I guess that's where the part about calf nrains come in as it's probably a byproduct of the veal industry.
