About Me

This blog is created to show our society behind the scenes of fast food. Many people do not realize what is in their food half of the time or where they come from as well. We do not know how healthy it is, what the animals have to go through to make the food, and if it is even safe to eat. We will break down this topic into three sections: healthiness, animal cruelty, and food safety. Enjoy!

Poor Pigs

http://www.youcouldsavetheworld.com/sitebuilder/images/gestation_crates-583x423.jpg

In this picture we see how the food industry put pigs in cages that are barley bigger than there bodies. Because the pigs have no room to walk or even stand up in these cages they often cut themselves and get open sores when they rub against the cage. These pigs live miserable lives. They are beaten,whipped and  pumped with hormones to make them fatter. When their life comes to an end, they are either shot in the head with nail guns or pushed into a machine that shocks them to death. -Samuel Bermudez

  1. i am strongly disgusted by animal cruelty after these pictures. I knew pigs and other animals were killed, but i was surprised to find out the way they were treated before dying. What's more sad is that we all know how animals are being treated, but we still have the tendency to eat them since it is our food. Animals are slaughtered in inhumane ways that will not allow them to feel any pain during that process which is very heartbreaking to know,
