That is the saying that kept repeating in my head as I read "Defending Your Dinner: An Open Contest For Hungry Ethicists"
I am a meat eater. I love meat and I am not going to lie about it. But despite my love for it, is it ethical? We're are all familiar with pamphlets promoting a vegan lifestyle. We know about the animal cruelty that takes place during the process of animal slaughtering. So why do we continue to eat meat?
I think, at least in my case, we opt for ignorance. We know that our sources for meat products, may also be utilize animal cruelty, but we choose to tell ourselves that since we don't know... it's ok.
