I'm so disgusted right now. The way that the animals and humans in the industry are treated is appalling. I have no words for how sad this whole movie makes me.
I've been slowly moving over to more local and organic foods. Plan on making a bigger push for that now. Its hard being a poor graduate student and eating more responsible food though.
Re: watching Food Inc.
This is what we do as well.
I only cook about 2 meals a week for dinners and then eat the left overs the rest of the week. So I do eat meat most days but not in large quantities. Kind of like eating it 2-3x/week right?
There's a local co-op that I haven't tried yet. After seeing that I'm going to head over there and price out what I can afford.
You don't have to stop eating meat or feel guilty about eating meat, just be conscious about where you're getting it... Buying local and natural supports a farmer who could use your business to keep up his great choice to stay all natural. Try looking for places with:
