   I'm so glad I'm a vegetarian. Anyone who eats meat like this should be obligated to sit, watch, and think about it. Fucking disgusting world we live in, sometimes.

   This document is so true. I come from Poland and when I first came to the UK I was shocked by the lack of local greengrocers. I don't drive, which means I have to buy locally – that means the local supermarket branch. And most of the fruit and veg there taste of slightly flavoured water and plastic – probably from the bags they are kept in. I guess if you have never tried real food, you wouldn't expect it to have a taste really… People, don't let the supermarket feed you things that taste of paper! Let's go out and demand real food!

   There is no such thing as humaine killing. It's a paradox. In this case, we are killing for pleasure, because the human body does not need meat to survive or be healthy.
   Get it right. People eat meat not out of necessity, but out of preference and tradition. For taste, that's what it boils down to.

   By virtue of the fact that animals have pain receptors and a central nervous system; they have the ability to suffer, therefore some might conclude, like myself, an ex-meat eater, that it is morally wrong to eat meat.

   I am not trying to come across as a preachy vegan or anything, but it's something to think about while you chew on the dead flesh of another species.

   Dude, we do need meat to survive. Human beings require vitamin B12, DHA and Omega-3 which can only be found in red and white meat in order to properly grow. These are highly important for development, especially for children and they can't be found in plant-based alternatives. If we were to be deprived of these important vitamins, we will have to deal with hindered brain growth.

   Would you rather me chew on the flesh of my own species?

   You are correct, slaughtering animals for meat is not humane in any way. So fucking what?

   It is undeniable that humans are biological systems which require an omnivorous intake of various pieces of our fellow organisms. That is, we REQUIRE a balanced diet consisting of mostly fruits and vegetables and a good supply of red, white, and fish flesh in order to function.

   Just because modernity has given you the opportunity to be a prissy fuck and survive (that's survive, not thrive) without the intake of meat, in no way changes the millions of years of evolutionary development of our DNA.

   I do not deny the fact that I am a predator, and none of you should either; it's rather unbecoming.

   Whilst I don't particularly care whether an animal suffers in order for me to pass on my genetic heritage(I do have my priorities); it neither picks my pocket or breaks my leg to attempt to minimize the suffering we can imagine being experienced by our cousins. But one must always keep the original goal in mind: FOOD.

   It is ,looking at the footage, quite scaring.What the bloody thing ,are these people eating these days? Are we ready to grow our children in this enviroment.Apparently, we are doing it.
   I am european, and i know how a country raised chicken looks and most important tastes.I definitely know the taste of fatty farm meadow farm cow milk taste like, and byporducts-cheese and so on.
   This so called demanding- the supermarkets are invoching,represents in my opinion,my humble one, 20% at the most, from general buyers.but let me explainwhich buyers-informed,down to earth buyers.not shopping spree ones.
   Gettinh back on the subject in hand, there are a lot of things that-"on a no need to know basis"- are covered with your standard issue PR notification:"our company is one of the top in researching, choosing the best products for our loyal customers …and so on, and so on…"
   final conclusion -start by looking first ,then buying later.try to cook your self, once in a while, and see how quick it is,how fun it is to sense the smell of food while cooking it.it may not come the first time, ……but for the moment, the quickest way to give birth to a baby is minimum 7 months to 9 months I HOPE,and I PRAY for this decision to remain in God s hands.
