Free range or not?
I read a post on dooce.com that was about free range chicken broth. Basically, I hear a lot about free range chicken and I’ve been giving the situation a bit of apathy. Now, I am faced with the question whether eating free range meat is good and noble thing. As a former democrat (only quit due to being Canadian), I believe in animal rights and what not. But I believe that when an animal is brought to a slaughterhouse or the like, it’s fate is already settled.
Do I care if MY dinner is free range? Not really, no. The reason being is that the chicken/cow/pig/whatever else is slaughtered the same way in the end. I do not really care for practices that make the food diseased but as long as the food is not viral and tastes pretty damn good, I couldn’t care less where it came from. I am not going to turn vegan or something like that because I do enjoy eating meat. It just has that delicious taste that we can all enjoy.
