My mom asked me if I was going to eat. I told her about my book. She said ok and gave me something different. It was amazing how one book can really change your life. By Kylie Magnuson Age 14, Lincoln, Nebraska I am from the American Midwest, where farming and beef industries are the big money.
Steak houses are all over, and to go to a vegetarian restaurant is practically unheard of.
When I go out to eat I have to search the menu for something that doesn t contain carnage. Most Americans think you have to eat meat to be healthy, and if you don t eat animal products you will just perish and die. The animals that people eat are brutally murdered. Most animals in fact know that they have come to face their death when the time has come. Sometimes pigs are so scared that the workers have to use electric shock to get them off of the trucks and into the factories.
