Ooh, I dunno about you there across the pond but we here in the Netherlands are having some problems with that..... Right now, a reasonably-sized part of our animal (mainly chicken, pig and cow) products comes from what we call the "bio-industry", which is definitely NOT humane. Chickens get their beaks burnt off upon birth, are raised to become so heavy their feet won't support them any more and get slaughtered when they're under a year old. They're killed by either drowning or gassing them. Cows are placed in crates with a head opening when they're still calves, they get raised to be so fat they suffer from being compressed in such a small space, they regularly suffer from numerous afflictions and them they get slaughtered too, also in a very cruel way. That's why the animal rights activists in my country are absolutely adamant that this trade becomes forbidden.

Now I don't know about you there, but I plainly get sick of stuff like this, and therefore I don't eat meat. Try all you may, I will end my days without ever having consumed a dead animal (barring the few times some part of some animal was hidden in something that looked vegetarian).
