And I do.<BR/><BR/>I have not read Omnivore's Dilemma yet, though I intend to. I have read Polian's NYT Magazine articles, however, as he developed the book. I,too, have toured beef-processing plants and even spent part of my youth making sausage.<BR/><BR/>The NYT stuff actually curtailed my red meat consumption dramatically -- not for gross-out reasons, but because he also described the vast amount of oil needed to produce a calf that becomes a cow fit for slaughter, then to move the product to your table.<BR/><BR/>But I confess my eating habits haven't entirely caught up to Polian's arguments.Joelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14753052418658482508noreply@blogger.com
