    Here is a video of a german slaughterhouse/Schlachthause. It explains how they make the food, shows how they chop up the pigs and drain their blood out to make Black Pudding.

    It's called "Fleisch und Blut" "Flesh and Blood"

    For those of you who understand german, or just one to see some really graphic stuff.

    Ugh, the morons on here...

    ...it's not about the fact that we eat chicken. We all love to eat chicken.

    It's HOW that chicken gets on your plate that's the problem.

    How does a zebra get on a lion's plate?

    Not really, the whole ecosystem has evolved with us in mind. If we stop eating animals they will over run us or we will over run them. The way we are doing it now necissitates their existance, so they will always exist.

    Like I said earlier, I have no problem with the idea of eating meat. It's the sickening, inhumane procedures that companies use to prepare that meat that's the problem.

    Well, seing as chickens are inhuman, does it matter if we are inhumane?

    If you get madcow or something, then yea, that's reason to be alarmed.

    evolution doesn't have purpose, it doesn't have anything 'in mind'. when an organism is confronted with a certain situation the ones best adapted survive and reproduce, passing their genes on, slowly changing the face (or fur, or toenail) of that organism, sorry, this is one of those things that bugs me.
    No problem can be solved from the same consciousness that created it.

    I agree, I don't believe that eating chicken and other meats are bad, why? Because we as humans, are supposed to be omnivorous...and it's just fucking tasty. I do however, agree that the way these animals are slaughtered are sick, the method should be changed, and I believe the laws should be changed so that there are less painful methods to kill the animal.

    Maybe we should go back to the good old way of biting their necks until they stop moving. You know, the way most carnivorous animals kill their pray. Would that be politically correct?
