I’ve just seen something that has left me feeling very upset and shaky

There are many different points here discussed - casual animal cruelty should be minimised
Some don’t want to witness animal cruelty, although some people obviously do.
Avoiding / reducing meat eating is one small way of reducing animal cruelty and climate change
Industrial farming of animals involves cruelty - plenty of horrible video evidence of that
Vegan bashing has surfaced as soon as non meat eating is mentioned
I haven’t bashed anyone who eats meat - some of my close family and friends eat meat - it’s their choice, and I understand why they make that choice, but I think people should be aware of how meat is produced - it isn’t just a plastic tray in a supermarket, but a living creature has to die to provide their body to be eaten.
A vegan diet can be healthy or unhealthy same as meat eating diet can be healthy or unhealthy,
All different discussion points which have somehow become entwined.
I witnessed animal cruelty as a small child, haven’t eaten meat since and clearly remember the incident.

The supermarket bosses seem more concerned about reducing the plastic than the animal a part of whose body is in it.

By the way, the new strawless packs of Alpro chocolate shake and Alpro strawberry shake have tamper-evident plastic screw cap tops.

But wait, amazingly the plastic is made from sugar cane, not fossil fuel and is recyclable. Wow, how about that!

Well said PinkQuartz. ?

Completely agree. Very well put.
