As a young child I used to believe that when meat was served for dinner it was only sick animals or ones that had died from being old. I finally discovered the truth when on a road trip i saw a truck full of lambs and quizzed my parents about them. They told me that is what we eat. I can honestly say I was horrified at the thought of eating heathly animals.
