In " Food for the Soul ," Kristof once again yearns for the farm of his childhood which, for him, had "soul." What that means is that it wasn't a factory-farm operation. The animals were still bred and raised for slaughter, but evidently in some kind of soulful way we don't really hear about. I'm on my way.

And they certainly wouldn't hurt anybody; that's what those big factory farms do that aren't owned by families. Their goal is to make a profit from the breeding and slaughter of animals. Yes, factory farms are the stuff of nightmares for nonhuman animals. But so are family farms. I don't care about scale.

No factory farms, no large-scale operations where animals are crammed together under a roof, never to see the light of day. I'd say no argument here if this were some kind of sanctuary situation, and the animals were in need of a loving home for the rest of their lives. Tags: Ethics Food and Drink Language.
