Yes, instead of eating the chickens I raise and nurture with good food and care I am going to go buy a synthetic man made thing because that's better for me?? Yeah, no thanks... People that choose to not eat meat of course have that choice and more power to them, but to make the above blanket statement is wrong. Please don't promote your choices on others.I think plant foods can provide most nutrients and vitamins that a human needs. Thus it is not necessary to kill something to get what a person needs. Whatever a person lacks from eating only plant foods can be made up by eating natural or synthetic vitamins. If I am not mistaken there is a way to obtain those without killing animals.
