However, I wonder why people believe (as one of the vegan interviewees seemed to) that if meat-eaters could just take a peek inside a slaughterhouse, they would all become vegetarians. How many vegetarians do you think there are among slaughterhouse employees? These people see animals killed every day of the week, and it doesn't turn them into vegetarians. In fact, people I've known who worked in the meat packing industry seemed proud of their knowledge of how meat is processed, and readily offerered advice as to which cuts are the best. I'm a vegetarian who believes there is a lot of misinformation out there -- much of it spread be vegetarians themselves. I too enjoyed the article in the Washington Post.
