Quality of the food we consume


On the topic of animals, hens are so mistreated. I am glad we spoke about this today in class. People usually make fun of Kosher, but if they really understood it they would be more accepting. Kosher food such as hens, are blessed by a rhabi. Other then that, they are made sure if an animal that it is killed with out any suffering and it was raised in a comfortable environment. Why would you want to eat a chicken or its egg that has been confined to a small cage with six other hens. These hens are so pent up they would peck each other to death except for the fact we debeak them. Can a person honestly think that this animal is healthy enough to be eaten. Science has shown when an animal is killed brutley it releases certain hormones when it is dying.
