You're most likely right. Bacon was an occasional treat when I was growing up so aside from liking the taste, I probably vaguely associate it with some positive memories too.

Are you quite ok with the grinding up of male chicks (alive) in order for you to be able to eat eggs?
I get my B12 from supplement pills.

Why would they grind up chicken to make eggs
I Am not ok with any form og harm toward animals. The chickens that lay the eggs i do eat are fed only on what they find on the ground. I do not eat eggs made in big industrial facrories

The breed used for eggs is not "fleshy" enough for the chicken meat industry, so the males born in the egg industry are surplus to requirements. They are either ground up (macerated) or gassed.

It is. You have to verify your age on youtube to view this standard practice.

Exactly. So the question regarding "The chickens that lay the eggs i do eat are fed only on what they find on the ground" is: What has happened to the male chicks?I would not want to watch.....

I could say that because it is my neighbours hobby chickens who lay the eggs. it is not from a big company that do not have any moral toward harming animals

I believe they have one or two male chicken yes. it sound like that in the morning anyway
My neighbour have 10-12 chickens in their backyard, and from time to time my neighbour ask if i want a few eggs.
It is not like i eat eggs every day or week
They are ground op alive because the male chicks have no use to the egg industry. The females are used for the egg production. You can find the graphic films of the grinding up process all over the internet. They are transported by an automatic belt until they fall between the revolving knives that chop them into pieces.Why would they grind up chicken to make eggs
Eggs have a crudyfying influence on the mind just like meat, fish, alcohol, mushrooms, onions and garlic.

Honestly, my vegan days were my healthiest ones. It always confuses me when people say veganism isn't healthy. I never felt better.
Twilight Hue
Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
Like smoking it takes time for symptoms to show over a course of many years.
Past a certain point extreme vegan is potentially disastrous and life threatening.
Same for meat eating. Too much and it's trouble.

Everything done to the extreme is bad, a healthy life with vegetarian food choice is not unhealthy.
I still can't see it. I was vegan seven years. I only had health issues after adopting dairy back into my diet.
As long as one is eating a balanced diet, there's no reason it can't be healthy.
Though one can have a bad diet regardless of whether or not they omit animal products.
We're lacto vegetarian, and don't eat egg. With the lacto, it's mostly yoghurt, kefir, and some cheese. Not a lot. There is a great variety to vegetarianism.
Meanwhile, according to this report, 93% of Americans had a shortage of Vitamin E, and the source is plants.
