Why I Am What I Now Am

[Kady]

Hi. I'm Kady.. I'm new. I'm also a new vegetarian. I've been meat free for over 4 months. I became a vegetarian after seeing the movie Baraka; I don't know how familiar it is. Well there is this scene.. a very real scene, where thousands of baby chicks are passed along a convair belt just to have their beaks burned down then tossed into cages to spend their lives making eggs. Watching these chicks.. these babies in my eyes go through all of that was horrifyng for me.
So I E-Mailed PETA and asked them to send me any information about these chick farms that they could. Well PETA sent me a letter.. more like a package! Containing information, CDs, Government letters about all kinds of animal suffering/cruelity. From chicks and chickens to calves and cows and horses, even fish.
From that package on I've been meat free. Cut it out of my diet..
I went cold turkey*
