tags:"A look at how the chick are hatched in factories by Discovery Channel. The chicks are first separated from their shells (which is high in calcium then goes to a rendering plant) and then move on to be classified by gender. Workers throws chicks into different chutes according to their gender. These are then bought by poultry farmers who raise them for their meat or eggs."

The mechanized efficiency of this is so ghastly.. To newborn chicks. Like rolls of tape or any other doodad on the shelves of WalMart.
But.... I think there is still a difference between willfully harming someone/thing and killing for food. Then again, who knows what those aliens eat. Maybe we have it coming after all.
For an interesting / sobering / more in-depth look at industrial food production, check out the recent film Our Daily Bread, findable on the torrents.
