This Washington Post article exposes the disturbing fact that in a single hamburger there’s muscle tissue and fiber from a hundred cows or more! This single point exposes the mass production and killing system that commodifies farm animals to the point that they are seen as simple objects, not even living beings.

Hamburgers are a symbol of American food and culture. Do we really want something involving pain, fear, death, environmental devastation and unhealthy substances to represent our culture? The question should not be “What’s in a burger? But “Who’s in a burger”?
