@Cla900 Organic =/= cruelty free. There's no way they'll get the milk if the calf stays with the mom (= veal production) and free-range hens are just as badly treated as battery hens.
@Cla900 Animals are killed at a fraction of their lives for meat and dairy. There exists no cruelty-free animal products. The RSPCA promotes happy exploitation, but it's still exploitation, they're not doing anything for the animals except increasing the demand in animal products and it works since instead of going vegan you still consume animal products and feeling comfortable about it. Would you let the RSPCA kill your children if it's in a "cruelty-free" manner?
@Cla900 Have you even seen the RSPCA's standards to calling something cruelty-free? It's no different from usual slaughters, the animals are still tortured and deprived from their life and there is no reason for this to occur. You don't need animal products, yet you choose to support murder and exploitation. The RSPCA will put their cruelty-free logo on an industry that tortures animals if they accept to make the gestation crates slightly bigger or any other insignificant change.
@Cla900 They offer awards to SLAUGHTERHOUSE designers and are proud of companies which choose to torture just a tiny bit less their victims before killing them. A life is priceless, there are absolutely no cruelty-free animal products. Don't force them to die, they didn't do anything to you.
Dairy cows are separated from their child after a day so they don't drink the milk you then buy. Male calves are killed before 1 year old, dairy cows are killed before 5 years old. They can live 25 years
@Cla900 And they usually live those 25 years with their child, as a family, but the dairy industry separates them. Pigs and chicken are confined in cages, killed before they are 1 year old. Hens are killed before they are 1 year old because they can't lay eggs at a sufficient rate and male chicks are crushed alive right after they are born because they can't lay eggs. Those are the RSPCA's standards of "cruelty-free" products.
@Cla900 and all of that for what? Are your taste buds worth more than their life? Animal products are extremely bad for human health. Animals are killed because of you, simply because you like how they taste. Don't you agree it's wrong to inflict death on sentient beings for reasons of pleasure or commodity? Then why do you do it?
how cute! im a vegetarian :D im thinking about becoming a vegan, but my family and I always buy organic (Cruelty free) products.

@seymourLlama
in the UK it's a slightly different situation.
the RSPCA have their own food line, so if we do ever buy meat then we buy theirs. then we know for sure it's 100% cruelty free
but since i wrote that comment, we've cut down on the meat.
especially since we got chickens and it occurred to my family how intelligent farm animals actually are.
my chickens are like small children.
it's upsetting to see the creatures tortured. it really disturbs me.

@seymourLlama
i don't understand why you're having a go at me.
if i could have my way, meat wouldn't come a mile within my house.
i'm a vegetarian. but sadly the rest of my family aren't.
although they don't have much meat. beef every now and again. that's it.
