Summary:

The slow shift of consumers switching from main factory meat to small farms or organic produce. The history of the commercial meat industry and how it started and the author's view on the subject.

Summary:

I agree with this article, about how the public is straying away from commercial meat. My family personally gets out meat from a small farm. Also there is more public awareness about the food industry. So the consumer with this knowledge is able to get meat from other sources. I'm not sure why the companies treat the animals like that, I'm sure they know it will become public.
