The Question We've Been Avoiding
A steak sizzles on a grill. A chicken roasts in the oven. Bacon crisps in a pan. These everyday scenes trigger reactions ranging from mouth-watering anticipation to moral discomfort. Few topics spark more heated debate than whether humans should eat meat. Some frame it as an evolutionary birthright, others as an ethical catastrophe. But what if both sides are missing something crucial? What if the real question isn't whether we should eat meat, but how much, produced how, and distributed to whom? This isn't just about personal choice-it's about the future of our species and our planet.
