Giving up meat for someone who has eaten it all their life is not difficult... it is almost impossible; and it is not due to lack of will, but because it must be said, the body is accustomed and conditioned.
However, among carnivores, there are also conscious people who are concerned about respect for animals and the environment, although they are still somewhat skeptical about the advances that promise to obtain it without having to kill animals or, failing that, giving them a decent treatment.
According to Tree Hugger , restaurants Chile Mobile Number List and multiple companies dedicated to the food sector are worrying about responding to these demands.
These are no small efforts for the industry; We currently live in a foodie culture in which good eating and after-dinner meals are taking over the community both in reality and on social networks.
However, despite this love of food and the request to treat animals humanely, how much do we know about new breeding methods?
If we carefully read the labels of meat and products of animal origin, we can find the following terms. Do you know what each one means?
Grass fed
Pasture raised
Organic
In freedom (free range)
Were you able to answer all of them? Don't worry, we'll tell you.
When you find a label announcing that cattle were grass-fed, it means that the animal was only fed its mother's milk and fresh grass or pasture hay.
If it says it was pasture-raised, it means that a good portion of the animal's nutrition was from organically managed pastures that were dehydrated and stored. The cattle could also be fed organic grains that function as supplemental nutrients.
Cattle
There are animals that received certified organic food, this implies that they were not given antibiotics or growth hormones. Likewise, this type of label ensures that the cattle were able to be outdoors and were raised on certified organic land.
Finally we have the term “free” which is quite literal. In this case the animal was not confined – although the perimeter of the area in which it was allowed to roam is not specified – and could eat whatever grass it wanted.
Now you know the answers, but many people still don't know the difference between each one. Kettle&Fire surveyed 2,000 people about their concern about the humane treatment of animals and asked them what each label means.
The first two terms were the ones that the participants were least able to answer, while answering the meaning of “organic” and “free-range” was much easier.
Although we are not 100% informed about new animal husbandry techniques, the concern to end inhumane and cruel methods is positively impacting companies and society, as businesses are becoming more aware of their social responsibility and are concerned about the expectations of your clients.
During the same survey, people were asked how interested they are in knowing where the animal foods they eat come from, and the results were very good since 55% of men and 53% of women stated that, Although it does not occupy his entire attention, he does care about the way farms treat animals. Only 9% of men and 3% of women confessed that they are not worried about the issue at all.
Regarding the reasons why we are interested in humane treatment and animal respect, the main responses were:
Animals are healthier and happier
It is beneficial for my health
Animal abuse is eradicated
It's cheaper
I do not buy products based on the treatment of animals.
And you... do you worry about how your food was treated before it reached your plate.
