We humans are anything but humane a lot of the time.
All farming is cruel. Crops are forced feed to grow and covered in masses of pesticides which soak into the food that we eat. Cruel on us as its poison.
Insects birds and lots of other creatures are exterminated to protect our food.
Natural habitats are destroyed for additional space to grow our food.
We maybe cruel at times when growing meat for food, but mainly to the food itself.
We are cruel to the natural world and wild animals when we grow veg, fruit, nuts and grains.
The human being has not evolved in 10s of thousands of years and we are designed to eat fish, meat, fruit and veg. Not all one and not all the other.
Balanced diet is key from proper responsible sources and not mass produced, over processed, factory food production.
This is the way.
