    The stat that horrifies me is how a person can consume multiple lives in one sitting. Like every two chicken wings equals one life slaughtered, and people get orders of 8 pieces at once, maybe multiple times a day or for multiple people.

    I guess cows, pigs, horses, whatever are bigger animals and feed more people, but it’s still messed up to me to know that one small meat snack requires the slaughter of an entire animal. It’s not like we can amputate their legs and only eat that part.

    I think I’d still feel the same knowing the cost of lives of other products. Like how many lives had to be lost to mine the cobalt in each of my electronic devices
