How I Am a Hypocrite

I'm an animal lover. I have 3 cats, 3 bearded dragons and a snake. All rescued from unwanted homes. I would have a lot more too if room and money allowed me too. I love animals, I hate to admit alot more than people most days. I also eat meat, I see no problem with eating meat, but here's my dilemma. I made the huge mistake on researching where my meat comes from, it made me cry and absolutely sick to my stomach. I, like many others, liked to stay ignorant, imagining my bacon being picked from a bacon tree made me feel much better about what I was eating. I didn't imagine on what level many of these animals were being tortured simply to put meat fast enough on our grocery shelves. I won't go into gory details, but I can't claim to be an animal lover and continue to blindly shop for my food sources. I also can't imagine going vegetarian. What I can do, is be responsible. I can make sure these animals are having the best lives possible before being put down for human consumption. I will be researching farmers and making sure that I am not supporting something that is cruel and unnecessary. I urge you to do the same.
