What cage free cartons look like.

And what they should look like;

They had cornishX at our county fair 4H show a couple yrs ago. They wern't all nasty looking yet, still had their chest feathers. But they all looked like they were ready to die anyway. Laying down, breathing heavy, tongues hanging out. All the heritage breeds, perky as could be, not stressed at all.

Foie gras... I'll pass thanks

That and veal...not a big fan of those. I can easily taste the sadness...me no likey sad...want HAPPY happy, joy joy.

But hey, try and skip the corn syrup...GMO...not SO easy...

Full blooded Cornish...are a beast to behold. I am all for true breeds...the Cornish are magnificent...why can't we raise these then--use the culls for our plates, eh?

Gorgeous does not even come close to how magnificent this hen is...wooka wooka wook!

I think the faces of cornish look like meat eating dinosaurs.

Y'all just summed up my thoughts exactly where frankenbirds are concerned.

having control over our food is what most of us are here for.

Veal is just wrong. I have known about it for 45 years... I used to ride my horse past a dairy on the way out to the trail... all those sheds with a calf each... a by product of the dairy industry. They dont even get to be with momma past that first colostrom nurse.

for years tsk tsk tsked over it all... Then I realized... I drink milk and eat cheese.

so I am a hypocrite.

I drink milk and eat dairy like there's an endless free supply... I'm a hypocrit too. Fairly normal human traight, lol.
I grow more every year though, veggies and meat and eggs. One day maybe dairy. I like knowing my food.

I don't think I've ever even tasted raw milk. Just haven't been around cows. And when raw milk is sold commercially it starts getting a bit iffy in my opinion. But if I had a farm next door, it would be nice to get the milk straight from there.

I don't think just plain veal is that bad, it's the ones brought up only on milk that I find most cruel.

Foie gras is really cruel too, but I have to admit, it is pretty delicious.
