If I could offer a suggestion for those who have a problem with eating battery farmed animals .....

Accept a lower percentage of meat in your diet and pay the premium required to eat free range organic meat. My husband and I do this and as a result, we eat chicken about once a month, beef and lamb maybe once every two months and pork three to four times a year. We have fish once a week and the rest of the time our diet is based around vegetables, grains and pulses.

Tonight, for example, we are having a leek and goat's cheese tart accompanied by a green leaf salad.
