FOOD“It’s always possible to wake someone from sleep, but no amount of noise will wake someone who is pretending to sleep” (Foer 102).

Family Farms

“A family farm is typically

defined as a farm where a

family owns the animals,

manages the operations,

and contributes labor on a

day to day basis. Two

generations ago, virtually

all farms were family

farms” (Foer 53).

Factory Farms

“The eat with care ethic didn’t become obsolete over time,

but died suddenly. It was killed, actually” (Foer 103).

“Animal agriculture makes a 40% greater contribution to global warming than all the transportation in the world combined; it is the number one cause of climate change” (Foer 43).

“The price of food hasn’t increased in the past thirty years… The model now for a

viable dairy is twelve hundred cows. That’s the smallest that can stay in

business” (Foer 94).
