This may sound heartless, but I don't have any moral dilemmas over eating meat. It's just the way I was raised. I was also friends with a few PETA worshippers, which did nothing to make me want to pursue a vegetarian lifestyle. (I detest this group for a number of reasons)
However, I do find it horrendous the conditions the animals are put in. We watched the documentary Our Daily Bread for one of our classes and it made me physically ill. The movie was European and our professor pointed out that they have better conditions for the animals than most places in North America. That's absolutely terrible.
The worst part is that processed meat is fairly cheap, even when compared to meat bought from small scaled farms where the animals are treated humanly before being killed. If I could afford to buy organic foods and support local farms, I would. For most people it's about convenience over ethical concerns.
