Reading: Food Awareness
Thursday, August 26, 2010
What a brilliant idea. I certainly hope it doesn't stir up a lot of flack, because a little awareness can go an awfully long way.

11-year-old Gabby spoke for many of us when she stared at the designated black pig and announced, "I wish bacon didn't taste so good."


I've often considered doing something like this, just as a reminder. But after a childhood of county fair pet shows, and 4 collegiate years spent in an agricultural town, I feel I have a certain respect for (and knowledge of) the animal products I consume. I don't always make the right choices, but the source of my food is almost never a mystery to me.

Hmm. This is absolutely something I would do with my children. Would you?
