I didn't even stop to think about the flak I might get...such an inflammatory topic! Didn't see Amanda's post until after I'd written mine then thought...uh...so I did a disclaimer, disinviting any attacks on my character for being part of a slaughter. Must be on people's minds these days...The Knitty Gritty Homesteadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02890656094078973552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-935730143653716843.post-8314322515764950382010-10-19T13:44:35.536-07:002010-10-19T13:44:35.536-07:00Wonderful post!

I agree 100% with you about knowing where your food comes from and how horrible factory farms are and I commend Amanda for being so brave with her post as she had to know what the comments would be like.<br />I hope she continues to post about their farm life and the animals and yes even the slaughtering of the animals. There are lessons for all of us. She is living the life so many of us only dream about, just as you are able to eat meat that some of us only can dream of ...I mean, how many of us really know exactly how our beef is treated?<br />You both are very lucky women.Vikihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14442392215628922364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-935730143653716843.post-64763012847170343362010-10-19T06:49:27.473-07:002010-10-19T06:49:27.473-07:00Perhaps it all comes down to what you believe anim...Perhaps it all comes down to what you believe animals' purpose to be. I like knowing my food. Some people do find that contradictory but I believe animals are here to help support people whether that is via food or other "jobs."meganwfnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-935730143653716843.post-58709910637878527212010-10-18T15:37:40.941-07:002010-10-18T15:37:40.941-07:00Okay, so I'm a vegetarian and there are many b...Okay, so I'm a vegetarian and there are many benefits to being one. But that not being the argument here, I must agree, that if you're going to eat meat, at least be thoughtful about where its coming from.<br />You are lucky to have a situation where you can see how the animals are treated before they become your dinner.jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15805394781985708507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-935730143653716843.post-17151905242003932392010-10-18T15:15:19.701-07:002010-10-18T15:15:19.701-07:00very well said!very well said!Brandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03582677255197063944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-935730143653716843.post-11024716369291058442010-10-18T14:31:16.061-07:002010-10-18T14:31:16.061-07:00It's so funny that when I was growing up I did...It's so funny that when I was growing up I didn't want to eat the meat from the animals my dad raised. I let myself become to attached to the animals. Now that I am older and wiser I see the benefits of homegrown meat versus store bought meat. I am grateful that my dad provides us with beef that is raised out in a pasture and not pumped full of steroids.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08256605864808552897noreply@blogger.com
