I just think we can still enjoy the things most of us have all enjoyed all our lives if the producers use good practices. There's no doubt in the interest of health and continued commerce, they have done just that. I'm not against advances in science but it has its downside and sometimes proves to be "fools gold." This has nothing to do with your post but The zeal to "fix" everything in our world is a constant source of amusement to me. We create a mess and then when we fix it we create another mess.
As did Otterhound, I will now bow out.
Thanks for the reply, no worries.

I think we'd like to enjoy all those things, but for some folks the impact of the actual farming practices is ranges from somewhat concerning to deeply troubling. I think any in-depth discussion of those issues is probably off-point, but there are plenty of good fake meat jokes left in play to keep this thread rolling for a while. ;D
