Very soon, millions of people across the UK will be eating turkey on Christmas day. Many will pay extra to ensure that their turkey is from a more ‘ethical’ source. But, as a recent article published in the Daily Mail shows, ‘free-range’ turkeys often live in appalling conditions – kept in over-crowded sheds, have the ends of their beaks cut off and never see daylight. Regardless of how they are raised, they will also have a painful, bloody end at a slaughterhouse. So why not spare a life this Christmas and choose a compassionate and delicious meat-free feast instead?
