There will be no pies or cakes that were made with milk that was meant for calves, or eggs that represent dead male chicks , forced molting, debeaking and other mutilations and cruelties. When in the position of having the choice, which so far is always, I'd rather choose not to have someone killed for me.

There is no ethical justification for killing an animal for no good reason. We can willfully contribute to the prosperity of factory farmers who profit from the mistreatment of animals, or we can refuse to support factory farmers with our purchases and purchase cruelty-free plant-based meals instead.

Ethical vegetarianism is the thesis that killing and eating animals is morally wrong whenever equally nutritious plant-based alternatives are available. Causing an animal to suffer for no good reason is cruel, and our ordinary commonsense morality tells us in no uncertain terms that cruelty is wrong. We all do.
