YT is always so educational.
So glad I'm a vegetarian
There's an old saying that if you want to enjoy the sausage, don't watch it being made.
Personally, I very much regret the need to kill animals for food. But I also realize that it's the real world, it will continue, and I'll eat my share.
I liked the "Then the bacon is shown the might of the German Army by being run over by a Panzerkampfwagen IV medium tank" ... 8)
I could relate to that somehow, if only bacon production had been all Panzerkampfwagen IVs had done!

And I'm sorry, that didn't look like dog meat at all and I severely doubt that dog meat would make good bacon, too lean. ;D

Same here. Furthermore I've always grabbed the traditionally smoked bacon in the store. Hereby all my suspicions regarding processed "bacon" are confirmed.
That video is pretty mild. I've been through both chicken and beef processing plants. Seeing a beef carcass (entire cow without its hide) being electrically stimulated to tenderize it makes an impression. Not something you want PETA to watch.
I've been veggie for circa 35 years now... I'm 65 years old...
I first visited a slaughter-house when I was about 6 years old and saw the processing of sheep and cows from walking into that room to leaving it on a hook...
Pornography and violence in the real-world is more legally available and viewed by members of the public than many of the practices utilised by the "food production" industry... almost a "secret society"...
Try witnessing the practices utilised in Halal and Kosher abattoirs and feel no empathy for the demise of a living creature in such a "brutal" fashion, and then go enjoy your roast...
Most of you would struggle to retain a full stomach after witnessing such things first-hand...
And a "joke"...
What happens when vegetarians breed...?
The produce vegans...
My daughter has been vegan for most of her 31 years...
I am proud of her, and under some "Gods", that is a sin...
To each their own...
My daugter turned vegan at 13, then my two sons, so most of the cooking at home was vegan anyway, I thought "I should give it a try just too just to see what it feels like", and it stuck. Not an ideology, no nutritional or moral background, and I never try to convert others or forward slaughter houses horror pics. It's good for me, I don't miss real meat or seafood, that's it.
