It's a bit hypocritical, but these are by-products. They wouldn't be available, except at great cost, if it were not for the meat industry.

I am a modern farmer.
I raise cattle and sheep for meat.
I eat meat.
I have pets.
In sure there are farmers out there who don't look after their animals. I don't see why given that it's a direct relation to how much you will get paid for them once you sell them so it makes more sense to have them well looked after and healthy. My point is though that saying that people like me don't look after our animals is pretty damn insulting.
Erm... we'd still have cats and dogs? Maybe not as much, but they'd still be here, being self centered and eating meat, continuing the meat eating tyranny.
You know that "not as much" bit?
Yeah, that
*brofist*
Also,
That is all
I call for an OcUK trip to Bem Brasil.

OP
The recent supermarket price war has driven the price of produce to an unrealistically low level.
This can only have a negative effect on workers and livestock's welfare.
Personally I don't have the stomach for the abattoir therefore I don't have the stomach for the steak dinner.
It's irrelevant, he still uses them, and I suspect he has no idea what I'm even talking about, due to ignorance of just what products are made using animal derivatives. If he wants to preach in the manner he has been, the least we can expect of him is that he's done his homework on the subject. But he clearly thinks that only food comes from the animal slaughter industry.
Maybe you need to break down which bit is ridiculous. Because I don't see it.
Viva Brazil is much better
You are being silly now. Here is an example for you, before Native Americans were introduced to the typical refined diet of crap, they were extremely health with excellent biomarkers of health. But hey - once introduced obesity and diabetes skyrockets.
You cannot prove otherwise but you are unable to, continue with your crap though as it's midly amusing.
And as i stated earlier, the supermarkets import meat from countries that do not have the same standards as the UK and therefore can produce at a reduced cost.
I'd never heard of that place until just now. I'm in.

Heck, if it serves meat in excessive quantities, I'm in. I don't want to leave until my meat sweats have covered the floor.
People are up in arms because of 43dogs that were burned alive for no reason.
As opposed to animals that are purposefully humanely (for the most part) killed so that we can make use of their delicious meaty bits (amongst the other things that go on to make many other products that you no doubt have no problem using/consuming).
It staggers me that you don't comprehend the difference.
Yes animal cruelty is all around us. Yes it's all bad. I've studied some animal welfare (Zoo Animal Management foundation degree covered it in some detail (including domestic farming stuff yes). I'm sure you're not aware of half of what goes on.) No I won't stop eating meat because of the few bad eggs (food pun!).
well, it's not irrelevant. In actual fact, you could, possibly (I don't know enough of the industry to say with any authority) argue that using animal by-products is the morally correct thing to do.
These animals have died anyway for meat. Allowing the inedible bits to be wasted is reprehensible for a caring society. The least we can do is make maximum use of the body that animal has sacrificed to us.
I'm not sure how much I can get behind what I've written there, but it's not a cut and dried issue, animal by-products.
I'm sure the Abbatoir is more friendly than me wandering into a field with a £12.99 hatchet from B&Q and unprofessionally bludgeoning a cow to death for a single steak which is the alternative.
I know a vegan who convinced a girl at work to go vegetarian, she lasted 6 weeks. The first 2-3 weeks she was fine & then she started to feel sick & tired all the time, funnily enough she was fine pretty much as soon as she went back to eating meat.
People don't view dogs as "Animals" as such because of our relationship with them.
I have 2 dogs, I eat meat & they also eat meat, as do my two cats.
This thread has actually made me fancy Steak & Chips with a nice bottle of red wine due to the steak pictures, your thread has just ended the life of another cow!

That's the one I normally go to. The downstairs is quite nice and relaxing(upstairs is for speed eaters), and their burnt ends are off the chaaaaain

In bold might be their mission statement
There's nothing ridiculous about it. Owning a cat isn't essential, but to own, and look after one you will need to support the meat industry with money. Ergo it's hypocritical to moan about the meat industry, the slaughtering and processing of animal carcasses, whilst also willingly buying into it to feed the cat that own but isn't essential to your survival.
It's actually a very simple concept, I am unsure as to why you're trying to make it so complicated.
