Title: Michael Mosley's Should I Eat Meat?
Post by: Izzy on August 22, 2014, 10:49:35 pm
BBC iPlayer - Horizon - 2014-2015: 2. Should I Eat Meat? - How to Feed the Planet (http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b04fhbrt/)
 
I found this programme about rearing meat animals very illuminating. I suspect it might trigger some heated debate on here. I don't want to start an argument I just thought I'd draw your attention to the programme.

was very interesting, and at times very uncomfortable to watch.

I have to say I don't think I could ever eat a lab grown burger though  :-\

Those feedlots looks terrible, what a crap life for them. Aside, enjoy meat in moderation, nothing wrong with it.

The problem is the farting, not the feedlots.

Eat less (but good) meat ought to be the mantra of the day. Life would be cheaper too, as well as longer.

I'm generally not a squeamish person but I had to cover my eyes! It was like something out of a horror/sci fi film! :sofa:
