Most important thing about your diet is who cooks it, a human or a corporation.

Food consists not just in piles of chemicals; it also comprises a set of social and ecological relationships, reaching back to the land and outward to other people.

For at the same time many people seem eager to extend the circle of our moral consideration to animals, in our factory farms and laboratories we are inflicting more suffering on more animals than at any time in history.

Eat more like the French. Or the Japanese. Or the Italians. Or the Greeks.

Animals die even if you eat vegetables. That is the nature of farming. There is a certain sacrifice involved.

There's been progress toward seeing that nature and culture are not opposing terms, and that wilderness is not the only kind of landscape for environmentalists to concern themselves with.

Perhaps more than any other, the food industry is very sensitive to consumer demand.
