There I agree with you. There is a way around it.

Hunting Season!

Get a license, go out, and help control the wild animal population. Take the meat to a processing station and have sausage, ground chuck, steaks, etc.. made from them.

I think each license allows a certain number of deer, trurkey, etc.. Bag your limit, process them, and you've got meat to last you months. And the more hunters in the household, the more meat you'll get.

PLUS - you will not be supporting the slaughter houses and meat-packing plants that turn your stomach with the ill-treatments.

You grow your own veggies and fruits in your garden, why not kill your own meat? Raise chickens for eggs, goats for milk. Actually, I hear that milking goats (goats bred for milking) make very good eating as well.
