This. I have mad respect for people that can control their diets on such an intense level.

I just don't have the means to do anything about it.
The only thing I will say is that I could care less how cruel the animals are treated. I don't like the idea of eating farmed animals simply because of the spread of disease because of their conditions. Please, no one try to convince me that animals have "dignity". Anything that ****s where it stands has no shame. (This is my opinion and I don't look down on anybody else's. This is not meant to be argumentative.)
