I know how we alway hear about Kentucky Fried Chicken or McDonald being cruel towards animals, but there is a place were I order pizza called Vocelli they told me they have natural cheese. I was just thinking well I know the meat is dead already, but I wonder do they toture their animals to death just for people to be happy?I'm a vegetarian and I was wondering about if other vegetarians have any knowledge about this?
Natural cheese just means that it is made out of real milk rather than synthetic ingredients. It has nothing whatsoever to do with anything else.
Their web site says nothing that indicates that they use meat from pastured animals, or that they use products that come from organic animals, so I would just assume that they use conventionally-grown animal products. It's likely that all of the animals received antibiotics and hormones and spent most, if not all, of their lives indoors and were slaughtered in a high-volume facility.
Remember that people don't treat animals in a mean way because they are jerks or because they think it tastes better when the animals died in fright (which is the case in Korea with dog meat), but because it is more cost-efficient. Time is money, and it takes a lot more time to make sure that an animal is actually stunned and unconscious before you slit its throat. It takes more time to make sure that the animal is dead before you start skinning it. It also takes more resources to raise an animal on pasture. You need a lot more land, and it takes longer to fatten them up. Corn is cheap and gets cows fat fast (probably because they don't normally eat it). More cows in less time means more money. People don't treat animals as unfeeling products because they are malicious, it is just that it is easier to make money that way.
KFC and McDonald's and most restaurants for that matter do not operate farms, slaughterhouses or anything associated with actual raising/slaughtering of animals whatsoever. They get their chickens/meat/cheese from suppliers just like any other restaurant or household.
Natural cheese is most likely just cheese made the "old fashioned way": with milk, enzymes and the multitude of processes that a manufacturer needs to do in order to produce a product called "cheese". A large cheese maker will buy his milk from a supplier. A "boutique" cheese maker may or may have his own animals that supply milk.
You are a victim of propaganda just like anyone who believes everything they hear or read without bothering to check if it even makes sense or not.I'm a vegetarian and I was wondering about if other vegetarians have any knowledge about this?
Natural cheese means nothing. What they do to get the milk is artificially inseminate the cow, or constantly have her mate with a bull and keep her pregnant..not healthy..and then kill her calf so her calf won't drink any of the milk used in that cheese, or any other milk products people consume.
Edit: Yes, sometimes they are tortured. My brother used to work for a beef plant, and they had rabbis that would perform rituals to make it kosher. My brother said it's nothing more than torture.
Kentucky Fried Chicken or McDonalds or Vocelli has absolutely nothing to do (directly) with how "their" animals are treated. The animals are never "theirs" anyway, they just cook them and serve them.
Restaurants have contracts with vendors and food suppliers who raise and slaughter the animals.I'm a vegetarian and I was wondering about if other vegetarians have any knowledge about this?
Farms and slaughter houses don't torture animals. Why would they? What could they possibly gain by doing so? Animals are killed for food. But torture no.
I am sorry i really dont understand the question
Ummm. I don't see what natural cheese has to do with anything.
But factory farms treat animals badly because that is the cheapest way to hold animals before they kill them and make them into meat. It's not just KFC and McDonald's doing it- it's the corporations that supply the meat to KFC, McDonald's, and basically every other place that serves meat (besides the ones that specifically buy it from humane farms, which do exist, but are very rare). So you could say that they do it to make people happy- they do it so the price of meat is low, and so the corporations will get a lot of profit while sacrificing the quality of life of the animals and the quality of the meat.
EDIT: this is also what happens on dairy farms and to chickens that produce eggs. and on fish farms, by the way.
