Slaughterhouse Blues More than 3,000 animals die every second in abattoirs around the world. We don’t like to think about where our meat comes from. Wrapped in clear cellophane with little more than an expiration date and a picture of a smiling cartoon animal, the gravity of packaged meat loses its impetus. In its final form—as a drumstick, sirloin, flank, breast, brisket, rib—meat becomes an abstract, a consumable with no weight or relevance to the creature it came from. You don’t consider the
When you look in the window at a cute little puppy at a pet store have you ever thought about what that puppy’s life might have been like before they got to that store? Frankly speaking, I never did until I started reading about puppy mills. Puppy farms or puppy mills are institutions of cruelty usually hidden from public view where dogs are housed in shocking appalling conditions. It is not unusual for large number of dogs to be crammed together in filthy pens and cages. As a pet owner, animal lover
Veal Production When dairy cows give birth to a male calf, that calf is sold to veal farmers for veal production. To improve the quality of veal Dutch famers used to feed their calves skim milk.

earth’s total land mass used for animal grazing is 26%, but the number of acres devoted to U.S animal production is 528 million. These statistics just prove what this world is prioritizing today. Morals have gone out the window for people who are choosing profit over individual rights and needs.

There is a controversy over the fact that consuming meat is so common an has been

For instance, if you were in a restaurant and said out loud, "I can't wait to eat the veal marsala I ordered," and there were people around who knew that the veal marsala was poisoned and that you would die as soon as you took a bite, your situation would be one of dramatic irony.” The well known Comedy, Much Ado About Nothing, written by the acclaimed author, poet, and thespian

Every culture that has existed and will ever exist has ideals about what it means to be a part of their heritage. An example of this in American culture would be the idea of having a nuclear family and working diligently every weekday at an office job from nine to five. Another example of American idealism is how the American populace is expected to follow patriotism, to the point of being blinded by it. Ordinarily, this idea is reverberated everyday when defenseless citizens are mowed down by police

family members requested contact with Curtis, they were denied that right. Doug Evans was in multiple instances witness to tampering. He was known to have shown Patrick Veal (one of the “witnesses”) pictures and told him a story that he was supposed to tell the jury to make Curtis Flowers seem like he had committed the crime. Veal was offered a 30k reward for splitting with the other “jailhouse snitch” Ricky Banks, who would later imply that Doug Evans was offering an incentive for them to lie to

These tiny crates prohibit exercise and prevent muscle growth as this supposedly makes them taste better. Some people may be shocked or even sickened to hear this but

The main goal was to plan, prepare, present and evaluate a main course meal for a toddler to prevent the possibility of anaemia. In order to come to conclusion to what to cook I heard to research recipe that had iron it in because that was the main aim to prepare a meal that can prevent anaemia.

This was because some preparation of the ingredients took longer than
is very effective at making sure the hens get the right amount of food and water, depending on the period of the laying cycle (“Housing”). Cattle are also housed in very cost-effective enclosures, especially in the case of calves being raised for veal. Veal calves are the male offspring of dairy cattle, as they were not bred to be very meaty, but cannot produce milk. They are kept in extremely small pens to ensure they do not acquire a large amount of muscle mass, so the meat will be very tender once
