I never thought I’d hear a compelling argument for vegetarianism but between pink slime and meat glue, not to mention tuna scrape, pass the broccoli.

Ditto. I've really cut back on ordering meat in restaurants anymore. If I didn't pick it out myself from the butcher(or what passes for a butcher these days), then I think twice or even three times before ordering now-a-days.

Went whole food vegan several years ago. By far, the best decision I ever made for myself.

I see it completely the other way around. I like to see a complete (efficient) use of the animal, and as long as it is not toxic I have no problem with it. Rather, it’s good stewardship, stretching the dollar, feeding the most people.

We pound meat, roll pickles in it, stick it together with toothpicks, dredge it in flour and fry it in oil and call it “rouladen.” It’s a great use of a cheap cut of meat, but it’s not “natural.” We mess with it like crazy. So what?
