Tyson Foods, which processes around one-fifth of all chicken in the United States, initially pledged to remove antibiotics from its products in 2017, yet has reversed its decision because fewer people now want to buy meat that was more expensive, in large part thanks to “Bidenflation” and the government’s mishandling of the economy.
It might be time to just say fuck it and go vegan.
I already feel like a hypocrite supporting these companies who abuse animals by the millions.
I am a reducitarian… I go vegetarian as much as I can. My household doesn’t allow it - I have kids that need to eat meat for their growth, and of course, we are buying expensive, non-GMO, organic meat for them, but this means that I eat meat here and there for their own good.
Vegetarianism is difficult where I live but it’s a lot easier than people think once they get the hang of it.
This is similar to the approach I’ve considered.
Go 90% vegetarian/vegan and only eat meat when outside the house.
I dread being the type of person that others have to cater to. No chance I’ll turn my nose at a burger at a bbq.
I think I could go without meat for the most part, but I absolutely LIVE on dairy. Milk, cheese, sour cream. Those are my weakness.
When the economy goes bad, the decisions people make for their own health end up being put on the backburner, and that’s just sad.
