Maybe it's a bit like the initial theory of vaping, a way to help wean off what they know is wrong. In truth, that theory is a load of bollocks, it's simply about companies finding new ways to make money. In both cases, it's something that's completely unnecessary. As someone who doesn't eat meat, and hasn't for around 15 years, I really don't want my vegetables to mimic meat. I walked into Vanessa's in Beverley the other day to grab something (not meat!) from their shop downstairs. The stink of meat (i.e. dead animal flesh) in there was honestly disgusting.

How about, if so many meat eaters claim to be 'animal lovers', why are they ok with the horrendous treatment, abuse and slaughter of them? Take your time; I'll wait.

There are too many flaws in your argument for me to take the time to go through.

This sums up the internet for me. Everything has to be black and white no middle ground.

As I have an emotional and social attachment to my dog I shouldn't eat bacon from an ethically farmed pig I've never met, or game I've shot and butchered myself.

look at all this effort to get a mega fat man out of his flat in london

taking down the wall and building a makeshift ramp
 
I respect your choice to be a vegetarian if you don't like the fact that I'm an omnivore I can't change that.
Same if you think all pigs are farmed in the same way I can't change your mind.
Of course all pigs (cows, sheep, poultry....) aren't farmed in the same way, but surely nobody can seriously think there's such a thing as 'an ethically farmed pig', As for the 'happy cows / pigs' marketing; beggars belief that some people actually believe it.
Anyway, it's been done to death on here (a bit like cows, pigs, sheep, etc in real life), so maybe let's leave it there.
