Kentuckyfriedcruelty.com is perfect for updates. And if you not in it for health reasons then why do you eat there?

I've never heard of Bakers, so I wouldn't know that.

And aside from two biased websites (the KFC cruelty vs the official KFC website), how do we REALLY know about KFCs practices, and how do we know whether or not they have changed?

P.S. I'm a vegetarian. And I'm not in it for the health aspect.

EDIT: If it's a problem with the suppliers, then why not protest THEM?

Acctually thats kinda where your wrong my friend. There are many fast food places that carry vegan vegetarian Lacto-vegetarian lacto-ovo-vegetarian pescatarian and semi-vegetarian food.

Yep. I just did a thread on it.

P.S. Yes, I would go to KFC.

P.P.S. I said marked. Most of the restaurants with vegetarian food, you have to know it exists since it's rarely marked anywhere else.

Actually, KFC is one of the few fast food restaurants that actually have their vegetarian options marked.

That's actually pretty amazing.

They also admit that while they cook their fries in vegetable oil, they also cook their chicken in it.

So until we know for sure the practices of KFC, at least realize what they do do before making such judgments.

That's good. I think amp just wanted you to concentrate on those reasons instead of the health bit, since vegetables can be unhealthy, too. Hopefully we've got this all ironed out. Lots of circular arguing going on in this thread.

All right, so there are bad things in both meat and vegetables. Both are liable to kill you if they aren't safely prepared. Can we drop this line of argument now? As has been pointed out, unhealthy meat isn't a reason to turn to a meat-free diet since vegetables can be unhealthy. Yes, this is a topic about meat (kind of), but it's irrelevant that meat can be dangerous since veggies are the same way. If you're just considering the "poisons" in your food, then meat and vegetables are on the same level, which means you have to have other reasons to show why one is better than the other.

why? DDT and pesticides will kill you a hell of alot faster then hormones in meat. So why are veggies different. It's all bad, it's all going to kill us sooner or later. So why distinguish? Don't make it a reason to stop eating meat, make it a reason to buy healthier food.

No, what your doing is saying "there are poisons in meat, so in addition to [insert animal cruelty in the rest of your argument here] you shouldn't eat meat. I'm saying that, that is an invalid argument and because of circumstances like veggies having poisons as well so you should just drop it.

Fine be vegan to protest inhumane treatment. Just take the "meat has poisons in it and is therefore bad" argument behind the barn and shoot it.

No, I found out the inhumane way that they kill meat. And I really didnt want to sit there knowing what the piece of meat went through just so I can eat....

So why bother with vegetarianism? or at least the "poisons" argument? We're all screwed regardless of what we eat so just ditch that argument already.
