We became aware of the dangers to the environment and health this summer when we became involved in fighting a soon to be constructed hog CAFO in our neighborhood. We are now buying only local family-farm grown meats. It is really frightening what can come out of a CAFO and it is certainly more than just meat. Great information.

We switched to local grass-fed beef this spring (right after reading The Omnivore's dilemma), and I can't imagine buying CAFO beef - or even grain-finished beef - ever again. There's something comforting and intrinsically _right_ about being able to look into the eye of the person who raises the beef that you eat, and know that the farmer cares deeply for his animals' welfare.

I recently had a discussion with my husband after reading Animal Vegetable Miracle about this topic. He kept insisting that cows have to have grain in their diet. I am going to have him read this later so we can discuss further. Thanks for this great information.
