[quote=scaredyclassic]Over 55, veganism very rare in the usa. old people dont change, for the most part. Republicans and meat eaters dying every year. the republicans may be replaced, but the meat eaters are on the decline.[/quote]
One thing that keeps me motivated to continue avoiding beef – passing the slaughterhouse on I-5 while traveling to northern california. I can smell that place about 5 miles before we pass it and the smell and sight of the place is just disgusting. I want nothing to do with that industry.
I notice they put the Harris Ranch steakhouse several miles to the south of the slaughterhouse – they don’t want to smell it, either. And the row of trees they planted along I-5 to shield the motorist’s view of the slaughterhouse? Those ain’t doin’ much.
If I ever passed a chicken slaughterhouse I guess it might shape my opinion on poultry also.
Finally: I can tell you’re a CA and NY boy at heart scaredy because the midwest is still chock full of big meat eaters. Young and old alike. It goes hand in hand with hunting. There may be a decline in meat eating, but it isn’t going to disappear tomorrow I can tell you that.
