Stomach This: ‘Why I Don’t Eat Chicken’

Published by PETA Staff.
< 1 min read

Why I don’t eat chicken—let me count the reasons: There’s cruelty and callousness, blood and pus, pain and suffering, and sickness and death, not to mention feces, vomit, parasites, pollution, plaque build-up, and other disturbing and disgusting things that I just can’t stomach. PETA has created a compelling 30-second clip called “Why I Don’t Eat Chicken” that features some of the most unappetizing footage from our chicken factory farm investigations. Check it out, and share it with everyone you know. If they can’t stomach the video, then they shouldn’t stomach chicken flesh.

“Almost all of us grew up eating meat, wearing leather, and going to circuses and zoos. We never considered the impact of these actions on the animals involved. For whatever reason, you are now asking the question: Why should animals have rights?”

— Ingrid Newkirk, PETA Founder and co-author of Animalkind
