Living Without Meat

This came to my e-mail inbox this morning as part of a much larger collection of cute animal pictures with “may you …” blessings and well wishes:

May you find the perfect diet for your body and your soul.

(If this face doesn’t make you want to stop eating bacon, nothing will.)

I love each and every mention to avoiding meat in one’s diet that I see, but this one is extra cute! Look into this piglet’s eyes and tell him that you choose to eat pork products even though you know it causes pigs disgusting, inhumane pain and suffering. Or, if you don’t eat meat, look at him and smile. Remember that this is the impact of your diet. By abstaining from food that’s not really healthy for you anyways, you are making it a better world for animals.
