Veal are abused baby cows which are kept in a small crate so they can't turn around or walk, so that their muscles are like mush. Do you have zero morals brah?
But they cook so well, and take up such flavor, so, meh.
I'll make sure to cook my veal chops with some Fois Gras next time.
lol. As long as you know that you're being a dick.
Needless to say, I would never eat veal and as we see here, there are people who want to be cruel, are too cowardly to do it themselves but jump at the chance to pay someone else to do it for them - as in veal, fois gras, etc.
BUT as cruelty goes, veal may actually be somewhat less cruel than other kinds of flesh.
True that the calves are horribly abused for their entire lives, they're kept sick, starved of real food in favor of a pap that barely keeps them alive, constantly leaking liquid stool, unable to stand up because they're so weak but their misery lasts only a relatively few weeks or months.
In contrast, dairy, factory farmed eggs, factory farmed meat of other animals suffer intense cruelty for their entire lives. Dairy is among the worst because it goes on for years. Battery chickens usually die after about 1 year because they're just worn out.
If you want to eat flesh, buy from a local ranch where the animals live on grass and are slaughtered on the spot.
For those who, like the posts above, like the cruelty but won't do it themselves, buy from a large supermarket. That way, you not only get the cruelty, you also get lot of the drugs and hormones that we now know are very harmful to adults and even more so to children.
And be sure to stop at McDonald's on the way home.
