This IS What America Is Eating Today!
There was no mistaking the smell as I drove down the road and rounded the corner. Yup, there it was, the CHICKEN TRUCK! And now I was stuck behind it. You see, our roads are hilly and winding and getting around the chicken truck is no easy task. It drives slow, smells like wet chicken feathers and the feathers are constantly landing and (sometimes) sticking to your windshield.
Not to mention that I'm coming from a farm where I'm used to seeing dozens of happy chickens walking free range over our property eating and enjoying their days worry free. And these chickens are all overweight, and crammed into tiny cages headed to the butchering facility.
Hey, I'm no softy, when it comes time for butchering any animal on our homestead, I have the same feeling about it as I would opening a box of crackers. It's food and I'm hungry. But I want our animals while they are in our care to be happy and healthy and not be miserable and these chickens have only known misery. And it makes me sad.
Not only that but it's unhealthy for those who will consume them. They are raised with hormones and unhealthy feed so as to get the most weight out of each bird. No concern is given as to the nutrition of the end product. Americans just eat it and don't think twice about it.
