I'd be happy if it encouraged treating meat as a luxury to be respected, rather then an industrial product.

Meat and fish are different from
fruit and grains, but, like many others, they
are just something I pick up at the market.
If I had to hunt or fish for my victuals I would undoubtedly have different views, but I'm not
sure I'm ready to throw the industrial baby out
with the Macdonald-land bath.

I'm trying to drown that particular baby, but it's difficult. In order to get organic/free range meat I pretty much have to drive to the shopping centre rather than go to the local butchers. The local supermarket has a crappy range of vegetables, so that I end up buying meat more often than I would like to in order to get something interesting to eat. Do I buy supermarket veg and butchers meat or do I drive (my small car) to the shopping centre more often?

By industrial I mean the drug fuelled factory farming rather than more traditional methods. I'd rather eat an organic chicken once a month than buy the cotton wool that comes out of the factory farms.
