Yeah, but I guess it's the product of humans' need for diversity.
Why not just stick to proper beef, ratherthan all this new-fangled dross that people like Jamie Oliver promote.
When I found out about how they 'make' veal (if you know what I mean), I was disgusted...sheesh, we get upset by people like Hitler and Saddam, at the way they have treated people, and yet do not think twice about what we do to animals inthe name of a 'good' meal.

I know that these animals are bred for food, but there is no need to subject them to abject torture and misery.
Just let em graze in a field and have some kind of life (as appreciation for their lives), but to hold them up in dingy, tight spaces, with no light or room to move, is just bordering on barbaric.
Those chickens know nothing other than the interior of those sheds - imagine how they must feel as they zoom down the road on the back of a lorry, looking at all the fields and sunlight (well, not today, as it was raining on a biblical scale), thinking to themselves.."Shit, wtf is all this...this is great!"

Then ...*THWUMP*

RESiNATE Reviewed by RESiNATE on . The Chicken Killers!!! Man, that is the LAST time I ever do THAT job :( I had to drive a lorry to a chicken farm last night, and collect some chickens for slaughter. Geez, what an eye-opener. There were these sheds (about 20meters x 80meters), and the floors were covered with live chickens - like a carpet! There were 5 sheds. They are kept in these sheds from hatching to about 40days old. Their light is artificial and set to timers. In other words, the only true daylight that they see, is in the back of the Rating: 5
