RobBright 35 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 that's why I eat free-range, humanly killed animals. Love the way how PETA tarnishes every farmer with the same brush. "elaborate pecking order" - great joke Paul! Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 what else are we supposed to eat Paul? GM crops? Crops that are over watered and fed with chemicals to stave off the insects and pests? Link to post Share on other sites
gareth_oau 2 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 what I see is quite disgusting, but I suspect he chooses to show the attention-grabbing exceptions. those idiots need to be locked up for their cruelty. the money drives the overall activities and as a society we should be willing to pay more for a more humane way, but reality will never allow that to happen. free range eggs are now a (more expensive) alternative, but i wonder what share of the egg market they get?

RobBright 35 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 And what about the fluffy white sheep? Are they stupid, devoid of emotion and not worth saving? Am happy to pay more for decent quality, well treated meat less often, instead of poor quality, inhumanely treated meat more often. Sorry but eat wagyu once every fortnight instead of Australian or American once a week, even though it is half the price. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted December 8, 2009 Author Share Posted December 8, 2009 yeah, that's the way I see it. Wagyu for beef, black Yamagata pigs for pork, organic veg, free range chicken and free range eggs from NZ. Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 And had some Yokohama wagyu today, so locally grown, fed and killed and reduced my carbon footprint. Beat that McCartney. Link to post Share on other sites

RobBright 35 Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Indeed, not until some watertight laws are introduced and the masses change their purchasing power. Link to post Share on other sites
Oyuki kigan 0 Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Um, Thursday, can we talk? the um... animal rights thingy stuff... well, thats my gig. i post the reactionary stuff, and you add some dry sarcasm. Thats the way its supposed to work. You stealing my fire! Pezby As for nothing changing, please get real. strict animal treatment laws are in place in much of Europe, due to information like this and the efforts of activists. America still has extremely lax laws, but got MUCH better after the publication of 'Diet For A New America'. Even McDonalds has improved the conditions for the chickens it buys due to outside pressure. As for Japan... well, they still are cool with filleting a fish alive, have no influential animal rights orgs like PETA or the SPCA, and dress their pets in the most humiliating outfits... And if you don't like what you see, than you can at least refuse to give those industries any money, and purchase free-range meat (preferably from conditions you can see for yourself) or reduce the amount you consume.

thursday 1 Posted December 22, 2009 Author Share Posted December 22, 2009 I was thinking about this footage when I was shopping for a turkey. Ended up with an ultra expensive free-range from the states. There were loads of butterballs, but that East Anglian accent of that bloke in the turkey fram in the vid put me off.

It really is as simple as voting with your wallet. As for price, when I started buying organic things where much more expensive than they are now. Higher sales > economies of scale > we all pay less and dance in the sun. Link to post Share on other sites
JA2340 16 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 But, if we were not meant to eat animials, why were they made so tasty? I'm sorry, but the PETA idiots have NFI about anything in the real world! Link to post Share on other sites

thursday 1 Posted December 22, 2009 Author Share Posted December 22, 2009 A lot of brands of soy sauce do use GM soya beans. When asked, Kikoman neither denied nor accepted that they use GM crops in their products. Link to post Share on other sites
