    So wait, are they treating the workers horribly, or… Oh, it’s an Onion article.

        People who genuinely think plant based diets are cruelty free and environmentally friendly don’t know anything about modern agriculture.

          You should assume that any consumption, if not proven otherwise, is not cruelty free and environmentally friendly. The most moral thing to do is to consume less, I guess.

    This is going to trigger so many broflakes who have made eating meat their whole personality.

    And before anybody starts screeching, I’m not even a vegan. I do mostly make vegan food at home, but you can pry my cheese out of my cold, dead hands, and I also occasionally eat fish or meat.
