Feeding Limits on Farmed Animals and Nutriton
Photo by Helena Lopes from Pexels Years ago, my mother would complain that chicken in Romania smelled and tasted of fish because they were feeding fish to the animals. Most of my family has a difficult time enjoying chicken for various reasons. Including me. I can't stand the smell or taste of non-Organic chicken and during the pandemic the smell of certain meats disgusted me. I know from experience that I can't be vegetarian or vegan anymore (I was for over 12 years), but I still have a difficult relationship to meat eating. I need to brine all fowl before I consider it edible. Only turkey rarely triggers a disgust reaction for me. But that's fresh turkey, not lunchmeat turkey. Later I noticed that a lot of meat in the supermarket claims "vegetarian fed" and that bothered me because I know that chickens and pigs are omnivores. Even horses have a legendary affinity for meat as an occasional treat. That seemed so unnatural...
