"If you can't stand watching it be produced,…

“If you can’t stand watching it be/being produced, you shouldn’t be eating it” is a saying that has been printed on many images. Many people can’t stand watching how animal products are produced, and the saying has been popular among vegans.

“The brilliant michael pollan on #oprah: ‘if you’re not willing to think about where your meat comes from, then you shouldn’t be eating it’” was posted on Twitter by Carolina S on February 1, 2011. “@theoprahshow ‘If you’re not willing to understand where your meat comes from, you shouldn’t be eating it’” was posted on Twitter by Allison M. Menozzi on February 1, 2011. American food author and journalist Michael Pollan has frequently made similar statements.

Do You Know Where Your Food Comes From?
Michael Pollan
Nobody gets us thinking more about what we eat than Michael Pollan does. For the past 25 years, the best-selling author has been opening our eyes to food with books like The Omnivore’s Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals and Food Rules: An Eater’s Manual. Last year, he was named one of Time magazine’s 100 Most Influential People in the world. Michael’s message is that we’re not going to get right with how we eat until we start thinking about where our food comes from.
