I have been joking for at least a decade, "That pig gave his all so I could enjoy eating my bacon?" I also said, "that bird suffered like crazy so I could eat him."
The average guy walking down the street does not know that animals suffer. How could he know? He has not been in too many barns or on too many farms. I also do not believe that farmers are bad people. So I ask myself, "Do most vegans stop eating to end suffering." I have never met another vegan in my life.
So I start thinking, "I am some crazy a$$hole who does not want some pig to suffer." I really do not want to make a pig suffer. They are incredible creatures. Then I get frustrated with myself and say "It is just a pig. Who cares about a pig?" Then I wonder what psychological damage I am doing to my family by feeding them vegan foods.
