If you eat any diary at all it leads to unnecessary calves.tribal girl said:No, I never have. Just the thought of it makes me feel sick. I was gradually having less and less meat with my meals until I just thought, "why bother?".
I don't eat fish anymore either. I suffer a huge amount of guilt when it comes to animal suffering as well. If I eat dairy it has to be free range, and all the products I use cannot be tested on animals. I've been like it for years, but I had an acid trip where I felt like an animal being led to the slaughter. Lets just say it was an eye opener.![]()
The modern dairy cow has been bred to be so specialised for milk, rather than meat production, that male calves of the pure dairy breed are perceived by many farmers as not being worth rearing for meat. . Male calves - the unwanted by-products of the dairy industry - continue to be treated like disposable waste rather than as sentient beings. All too often, they are likely to face an early death. Government advice for killing calves on farm is that "a free bullet or shotgun are preferred methods".
