"What I think most people fail to understand is that yes, while human beings have eaten meat for thousands of years and this is unlikely to change, factory farming is not natural or humane. You do not have to be cruel to animals to produce eggs and dairy, but you do on a massive scale. I am not going to tell people to never eat meat (even though I do not), but I am going to stand up for the fact that the methods used to produce animal products en masse in America are unacceptable. And if eliminating those methods means that there is less product to go around, I don't care."
