Wholefoods

Wholefoods has stopped selling live lobsters. Primarily because lobsters are not treated humanely. I think wholefoods could set a precedence by only offering foods that are socially responsible. John Kackey (wholefoods representative) had this to say about the decision "We place as much emphasis on the importance of humane treatment and quality of life for all animals as we do on the expectations for quality and flavor".

Personally I think this decision makes a lot of sense. Its obvious that murder for food isn't the best thing in the world, but the population must be fed. So where do you draw the line? Do you discontinue the use of luxury foods such as lobster and crab? or do you not eat meat at all?

At the moment I like meat far to much to give it up. Maybe If I had never eaten meat at all then I'd be able to turn away and munch carrots all day, but its much too late becauseI already know the sweet forbidden taste of a good burger.
