Vegetarian Food

Vegetarian Food

To help reduce the suffering of these defenseless, voiceless animals, the best thing we can do is to avoid supporting people or companies who profit from their suffering.

Each year 9 billion animals are killed for food in the US (285 animals per second).

If your family of two eats 2 chicken breasts per person, 4 times a week, that means you will consume 416 chickens in one year (8 chickens per week x 52 weeks per year)!

By substituting a delicious vegetarian alternative instead of eating animals, fewer animals will be produced and suffer torturous lives prior to being slaughtered. An added benefit for you will be a lower risk of colon cancer, heart attacks and the possibility of food poisoning from Salmonella, Listeria and E. coli bacteria.

Start slowly if you need to, and remember that each time you eat "veggie" you will be saving an animal's life.
