Actually I thought of that and asked about it! My doctor said that would not be sufficient a, unless I ate large amounts of cheese and butter and eggs, which I do not. And actually while it is true that the animals that are used in the production of those products are not slaughtered for meat consumption, it's no secret they are treated extremely inhumanely and have quite terrible lives, so I would not feel a good deal better. What I do now is bless and thank the spirit of the animal who gave its life for me before ingesting any flesh (and I eat only small amounts of it), much in the same way Native Americans used to do with the animals they killed for food and survival. That gives me peace. |
