This short documentary packs a punch. Pulling back the curtain on the transformations in animal agriculture in the U.S. over the past 60 years, narrator Alec Baldwin describes the standard agricultural practices used on American factory farms: animals endure routine mutilations (baby chicks have their beaks seared off with a hot blade; baby pigs are castrated without anesthesia; horns are sawed off of cows) before being packed cheek to jowl by the thousands or tens of thousands in massive sheds.Be warned: The film's depiction of legal and standard (but hideously cruel) treatment of animals on factory farms and in slaughterhouses has been so compelling that many people have changed the way they eat after watching this film. People who decide that their choices should reflect their values have also taken to the streets with this film to educate consumers on exactly what they pay for when they buy milk, eggs, and meat.

If you eat meat, you should watch this short, yet insightful film. You will be moved. This film will take you to where few ever dare go. The images are graphic and for some, disturbing. Yet it is a film which will leave you questioning your eating habits and what we have all grown-up believing. That farmed animals live happy lives. That the people who handle them are kind and considerate. When we eat meat we are helping our bodies and definitely not hurting the planet on which we live. This film has been seen by millions of people. Some were on the street, some were in their homes. All of them remember the 15 minutes they took out of their day to watch. You will to. See "Meet your Meat".
