I oversee operations for a fairly large hunger alleviation agency in Dallas. I hope I understand the starving children angle better than most. We don't have a food problem. We have a logistics and political problem. There's no reason for anyone to go to bed hungry in the wealthiest country the world has ever seen. It's insane.

In your opinion. I actually disagree that it is all that important of a topic or else there would be more public discourse. It's getting some air-time here for a multitude of reasons. Just like sausage - we like to eat it, but most people don't care to know what goes into making it. Doesn't stop them from eating it. I get your sensitivity on the availability of food topic, but that is an entirely different issue as previously mentioned with many many socioeconomic, political, even ethnic and racial variables, certainly not germane to Q-Talk. |

I don't believe a lot of what I read/hear, but most of these practices are promoted in some form or fashion by the government. It's why I am moving towards a more local approach or at least knowing where my food comes from instead of just at the store. If pork is like beef, it can be raised in a place like China (owns Smithfield) and as long as it is processed here they can slap a "USA product" sticker on it and sell it at the store. A quick search shows how serious their African swine flu has become.

Great suggestions here for how to do so more ethically. Some of them I've thought a lot about. Others are newer. Excited to learn more. I felt lots of tension around posting this in the first place because a part of me wishes I could be naive to the broader effects of my dietary choices. And despite how it may come across to some of you more sensitive types, I'm not particularly keen on turning anyone else onto this pity party. You can think for yourselves. I also knew there'd inevitably be folks who confuse my line of questioning for that of some kind of enemy ("burn the peta witch!"). The latter definitely ain't my problem. Probably my last reply on this thread, but I'll keep reading your responses. I've learned so much from this community over the years. Thanks, brethren. |

as I was pondering your question I was suddenly interrupted by the screams of a baby rabbit as my beloved cat Oscar choked the life out of it
it's easy to be ethical when your this far on top of the food chain.
