If you eat factory farmed meat, eggs, or dairy, you are almost guaranteed to be supporting animal cruelty. There are many fantastic books and documentaries detailing the horrors and dangers of factory farming and I've linked to a few below. This is an open secret.

I would be willing to bet that almost anybody here, once they've looked deeply into factory farming, would come out the other side and look at factory farmed animal products in a completely new light.

Do you truly want to stop farm animal cruelty? Investigate this industry and consider no longer buying factory farmed animal products.

For everyone interested in this topic I strongly recommend "Eating Animals" by Jonathan Safran Foer:

I became a vegetarian before reading this book, but reading it only made me more convinced that to stop eating meat and fish was one of the best decisions in my life.
