And my aunt and oldest cousin and his children are all vegetarians as well. They changed many years ago after a trip to China. They never told me what they saw in the markets but I have seen video of cat on shows before. They are such big animal lovers so that's not a big surprise. Just cut out red meat. Hell, chickens are so dumb I would have no problem butchering one of those things.
Chickens ain't being butchered; they're being tortured. De-beaked, blinded by overcrowded pecking, hormone therapies to induce egg-laying in chicks...it's a horror story. Food INC will turn your stomach. If you like eating chicken, DO NOT WATCH!
That being said, the only meat I eat is chicken and (mostly) turkey. I still eat fowl as much as I hate it. A total hypocrite, I am. But that's getting harder and harder. I was a vegetarian from 18-25. I'm starting to go back to that.
I don't mind eating dead things, but the process with some trades is fucking sick. My girlfriend weighs 102 pounds but will devour a steak like it's candy. Hell, I've scene her eat steak tartare that her Polack parents "prepared" for certain occasions. Yet she can't bring herself to eat KFC.
