A bit crass...but not as crass as what happens to billions of turkeys each year.
Another bizarre mentality--conflating animal welfare with how gourmet/expensive the meat was to produce:
if we're interested in long-term change, we can't look at killing with kindness or gratitude as a solution in itself. ... But if we want to spend our precious time, energy and dollars to help farm animals, the simplest thing one can do is realize that we don't need to consume animal products to live healthy and happy lives.
