Humane Eating a la Francais

Never has the debate over eating meat been so fierce as it is in the United States. There's a reason for such clamour: our production is industrialized unlike most European countries, thus the purpose is pure economics and nothing else. Throughout centuries, the French were as thrifty as the next yet produced animal products for culinary consumption that always had a farmer's humane sensibility, which yielded flavorful, quality food for the rest of us. Seek out humane farmers of the products with which you cook. The search is as much about ethics as it will be about flavor.
