The thing with pigs is: they eat a metric fuck-ton, so a lot of that land usage is to grow grain for feed.

That’s the vegans’ main point – we grow food to feed it to our food.

pigs are mostly fed crop seconds or other waste product. it’s just not true that we are growing food exclusively for pigs.

you don’t feed pigs corn that you could sell to humans. there is a reason it ended up in the barnyard instead of the grocery store.
