Meet the Meat

A harsh reality for a city kid (or adult) is that the meat you buy in the grocery store USED TO BE ALIVE!!  

The realization of that either pushes one to:

   1.  Not care---buy the cheapest stuff 

        giving not a thought to quality of the 

        meat or the animal's quality of life.

   2.  Become a vegetarian

   3.  Become ultra-involved in making 

        sure you know the quality of feed 

        and care going into the living animal.

Within my small family of 18 we have some who fall into each category... 

     1. Those in category 1, buy their own

          food and adhere to a strict budget.

          Eating healthy is markedly more

          expensive.  

     2.  Those in category 2 are not invited

          to ride along to take the animals to

          the butcher.  

      3. Those in category 3 are my 

          favorite.
