They Eat Babies. Happy Mother’s Day.

Who eats babies? A lot of people. From lamb and veal to suckling pig, like fairy-tale villains with the taste for lambshirtlayoutyoung, tender flesh, this food-fetish is responsible for systematically destroying nature’s bond between mother and child. The dairy industry depends entirely on the exploitation of the reproductive systems of mothers. Can you imagine if you were forcibly impregnated (dare I say raped?) by a farm worker sticking his arm up to his elbow into your anus, threading an implantation device through your cervix into your uterus over and over throughout your life, only to have your baby torn away and shackled so some adults of another specie can drink your milk and devour your baby’s soft muscles? This is beyond any mother’s worst nightmare.

Mother’s Day is a time for honoring motherhood. You can honor the mothers of animal agriculture by not drinking the milk intended for their babies, and not eating their babies. You can show your support by wearing the cow ribbon on Mother’s Day and doing what you can to help them with every meal you eat.

    Thank you so much for including us in your article this month. What a great surprise. The response to our eco friendly toys and vegan treats have been overwhelming. Yes We are aiming at 100% green and are in discussions with Shirt Manufacturers as that is our only flaw at the moment. Again thank you and thanks for supporting Anything Pawsible. We look forward to seeing our vegan friends this weekend and on our website http://www.anythingpawsible.com launching in June.

    As horrific as it may seem, what you wrote is the absolute truth and no number of ad campaigns or millions of dollars spent trying to blind us into thinking elsewise,can change this truth. Dairy products are the fruit of enslaved cows, rape, infanticide. Let’s stop this – now. That would be the best gift you could give to celebrate Mother’s day – to uphold Motherhood for all living beings.
