When I initially heard about the truck of skittles crashing in Wisconsin I was a bit curious as to what the hay it was doing there but never really thought about it again. I now know where that truck was headed and it is such an unfortunate and frustrating story.
Turns out, there was a farmer using the skittles as cheap carbohydrates for the cows. They were feeding them skittles in an effort to reduce costs associated with their feed. Basically, their already unnatural diet is even more so than what we thought. These poor cows are forced to eat soy, corn, and skittles; all of which are unnatural to their diet. What this basically demonstrates is the lack of supposed respect for the animals. Farmers claim their animals are treated so well and respected, but yet we hear of stories like this where they're using cheaper, unnatural methods to feed their animals. There's no respect or care there, all there is is greed. Looking for disgusting and abusive ways to save money with no regards to the animals' welfare whatsoever. There is no such thing as "humane meat". The facts are, no matter how great they're treated prior to being slaughtered, they're still being slaughtered. You can sugar coat it however you would like but it's pretty black and white. Animals don't want to die, don't deserve to die, and certainly don't deserve to be demeaned or disrespected prior to slaughter. It's time that people (The government for the most part) wake up to the injustices that animals endure everyday and recognize the problem. Inspect and demand better treatment for animals. Every farm should be inspected regularly to ensure certain quality standards. How does something like this go unnoticed? There needs to be stricter inspections and that's it. What do y'all think?
