~~From personal observation, non-meat farm animals are lean, sinewy and taste like shit. I'm not actually sure what they do with the calves but it's not growing them as normal meat cows.~~

~~Also, how does eating the corpse make killing more (or less) okay?~~

I’m not actually sure what they do with the calves but it’s not growing them as normal meat cows.

They raise them for a little bit and then slaughter them and sell it as veal.

I didn't bring up the morality of eating meat because it's tangential to this conversation.

I replied to the wrong person, oops. Sorry!
