Children Should Be Taught About Meat Production As Part Of Their Education
In a recent survey an alarming number of children didn't even realise that milk came from cows. Children, as part of their education, should be shown exactly how milk and meat arrive neatly packaged and wrapped in breadcrumbs in their local supermarket by having to visit slaughter houses. As the majority of us are happy to eat meat, it stands to reason that we should understand where it comes from. After all we do profess to be a nation of animal lovers.

What have we come to that are children are not learning these basics. How can we tackle the obesity problem if our children have know idea what they are consuming they will never be able to make an informed choice if we don't teach them

Yeah, I agree, some kids even dont know fish have bones in Japan as the manufactures take all the bones away.

I have to disagree with one statement - other than that I earnestly believe ALL children should know exactly how animal products are made!So yes, yes, yes! Children should know what happens!!!!! But I don't think they should take trips to slaughterhouses. It really is just way to traumatizing.
