Of course, there is always the chance that the meat eaters who are aware of their sinister plans, won't see this act the way it is intended, and instead think that the farmers have started to gift wrap food!

Now I give money to animal protection charities to try and assuage my guilt. I do however refuse to eat lamb or veal, because the thought of eating anything "cute" helps bolster the willpower to resist. So maybe I can blame it on the cows and chickens for me eating them.... if they made an effort to be cuter, I'd find it easier to resist eating them.

I won't mention the facts about un-digested meat; it wouldn't be appropriate! I've often thought about becoming vegetarian, but every time I try, I get a few days into it before giving in! I guess that shows just how little will power I really have! Friday I know what you mean Taylor, I myself am a carnivore, but apparently, our body’s are not designed to digest meat!
