Animal cruelty, better be a vegetarian !

[lostcauses10x]

Yep steroids and antibiotic in the store meat are a problem. That is not counting the possibility of prions and other biological hazards. Again a game of the industry policing itself. All the latest problems with peanut butter etc shows just how bad this could get. Strangely enough the risk seems to be higher for the vegetarian than the meat eater so far. Pesticides and the other stuff that goes with that end is just as unsafe.

The problem is, that in the supermarket you can not see,
if the meat you are buying was good or bad and if there were
injected any anabolika growth medicine into the animal
before it was slaughtered...

Stefan, thanks for the warning as I did not watch the video.  (yet)

I have always wondered about this subject.  For those that say we can't make muscle or get the protein we need from plants, consider the gorilla, who eats sticks and twigs and could kick all of our butts.

I love a good steak but to be honest, if I had to slaughter it, I would eat a salad instead so I guess that makes me a hypocrite.  Now I don't mind catching and fixing a fish to eat but the problem is, I never catch that many, ha ha.

I am not sure there is an answer to this dilemma or any right or wrong.  I have lived on nothing but salads for several weeks but then......I get a good steak or grill some excellent hamburgers.  There may be no hope for me.

Vegetarian Spaghetty Bolognaise with scrambled Tofu
is very delicious.

Also eating vegetables soup with potatoes and champignons mushrooms
and cooked brocoli is very nice and healthy and good for your stomach.

I agree, that sometimes one has a real hunger for a great grilled steak,
but maybe you can change instead to TOFU steaks, cause if you use the
right spices, it tastes also almost as good as a grilled steak.

Regards, Stefan.

Avoiding meat is just ignoring the problem. The problem is not the sick meat, the real problem is what caused the sick meat. It's called capitalism. Increasing profit no matter what. This is a very sick and deluded system that has to be brought down by none others than the citizens. By just shifting your focus to something else (vegetables) you're doing jack shit to eradicate the problem. Every type of food will be spoiled by them just because they want MORE AND MORE money. They will give a damn squat about your health.

This is not only the meat industry pretty much every single industry we know does exactly the same.

There's really one choice left and the only choice that always worked in history.

We grab out pitchforks and torches and hang these assholes.

Ughh.....terrible....... nothing deserves that kind torture,  if anything they should lead better lives than a wild animal as they are to be sacrificed, cancer and disease should be expected from bad practices like the video (which i didn't make it through either uhhh)........

I have killed animals and eaten them, problem is most people don't know what that's like- almost a religious experience when you think about the heavy ideas of death, life and survival. I can kill a rabbit or whatever and I don't feel bad cause deep down I know that's what we do, we kill to live, but to torture it and treat it like a thing rather than a animal.....whats the point, why?
laziness, greed, sadism, lack of empathy, etc
Maybe everybody should start getting their meat live and serve it on demand Lol
