We had over 200 head of cattle when I was a kid. Our feed yard sat on the land that I now own and is being farmed by the dairy farmer to the east.

You guys should read Fast Food Nation. It's a really interesting book.

There was a thread about this movie when it first came out.

Just remember just because it's in a movie doesn't make it true across the board.....they always show the worst of the worst.

We farm and have a cow herd and we raise our animals very well.

If God made me allergic to milk, soy and wheat then God must intend me to eat meat....

Yup. But I sure stay away from the manufactured stuff as much as I can. It's scary. Didn't know that MILK is used to process white sugar until I saw it on a food channel show. Or all those other chemicals. I briefly worked for a chemical mfg. biggest customers were water purification plants and bakeries...

I have seen too much over the years to believe anything entirely.

I can eat beef if grass-fed from a known critter. He's in the freezer now. I have his picture as a youngster.

My DS watched all of it - I couldn't. He wouldn't stop talking about it for a month.
