Have you SEEN the conditions dairy cows are kept in? It isn't some sunny field somewhere and hand milking for most of them! They /are/ limping and hobbling around./quote]
I know I am still blinkered to some things. Maybe I could give up milk if I tried. I did some building work in a chicken slaughterhouse many years ago, before becoming veggie, it was around Christmas time so they bumped up production to 100,000 birds per day. They came in clucking and went out in a plastic bag, frozen. The bit inbetween was quite awfull, and the smell was bad too. But you are right to pick me up on my hypocricy, it's nudges like that, that start me thinking. What do you use as a milk replacement?
