Yea, because the financial cost is offset by the exceptional environmental damage that consumers don’t see, and the immense ethical issues that consumers also don’t see.

The market has only proven that it’s very effective to keep your consumers ignorant of the true cost of a product. Which is, I’d like to hope, becoming less and less of an issue over time.

For me? Because you showed guilt, and then a refusal to even consider addressing your own guilt.

I feel guilt for eating chicken. I feel guilt for consuming factory farmed food. Ideally, when I have more money, I’ll source my chicken more humanely.

I guess it seemed like… the meat means more than the morals, to you? And you could’ve taken a more thoughtful approach and still continued to eat meat yknow?

Where did I mention anything about factory farmed food? Why did you assume I eat factory farmed chicken?
