After watching an undercover factory farm video and witnessing the horrors that some of the terrible workers do to the animals for fun, I have a hard time eating meat. I'll probably be vegan some day.
I buy my beef and pork from local family farmers. No factory farming from them. And I smile because the prices they charge are lower than what I pay at the grocery store. The only downside is that they only sell whole and half hogs, and quarter and half beev, which is a lot of meat to wrap and store at one time.
