But I agree with supersundas... humans do not need meat to survive. Eating meat is taking a life because you like the taste of it. And luckily everyone gets to make that choice for themselves.

I think the reason much of America eats meat so much is because they are addicted to it. I quit eating meat after 16 years of eating it and I found it a bit uncomfortable. But only a real man can control his desires
In addition, I worked on a study regarding emotional hormones released by animals. Basically what we researched and learned was that if they brutally torture the animal like they did in this video, it becomes extremely upset and emotional. When ANY organism is emotional and has an endocrine system, they release basically negative hormones into their bloodstream. Just like humans when they are stressed, we release cortisol and a few other hormones into our bloodstream.....animals do too. When the animal is finally killed, the hormones have been released already all into the bloodstream and into the tissues....then its cut up, packed up, and served at your local grocery store........when you and your children eat it, the hormones affect you after prolonged consuming. There are a lot of more strong points in which it truly does real damage to a body, especially in this generation......things are going to look ugly for america's youth in 20-30 years....sure it tastes good but is it worth anxiety, depression, and losing ~10 years of your life?
