I disagree completely. We are omnivores and meat is and has been a
part of our diet for a very long time. We have evolved biologically so
we can process meat as a source of nutrients. And many of us just plain
enjoy a nice rare aged porterhouse with some steakhouse vegetables.

I don't have much problem with the raising and slaughter of animals for
human consumption...actually I enjoy consuming the end product with
great relish.

Have you ever considered how difficult it must be to live the life of a
carrot? Living your early solitary life 6 inches beneath the ground
you are summarily yanked from the ground, your curly green hair is torn
off and you are thrown into a scrubber. As a carrot your ultimate fate
is to be either peeled, chewed, boiled or frozen. Not a pretty picture
for carrots is it...

OK, I'm off to Burger King for a Double Whopper...
