I am a foodie, in other words I like good food, it's important to me. I also care greatly about where my food comes from. How we treat our food is how we can expect to feel, how our health is. If we eat unhealthy animals, animals that are raised in factory farms, we cannot expect to be health. This is a great Article from the NYC, it talks about an important new book. http://www.nytimes.com/roomfordebate/2012/02/21/the-farm-bill-beyond-the-farm/end-farm-subsidies-and-treat-animals-better. Know what your eating make food important, care about where and how it comes to you. Buy local, support farmers markets, coops and other local sources for food. Be healthy. Be happy.
  This is an important new book on why we need to do this for our own personal health, maybe just reading the article will make a difference in your life, and the animals that surround you.
