Eating Animals reveals the true impact of the modern-day meat industry and details the environmental, health-related, and ethical consequences of eating meat.

As a person who doesn't eat meat moves through life, they often must deal with being constantly asked why they chose to give it up.

Vegetarians are often asked if they made that life decision based on ethics or health reasons.

In his book Eating Animals, published in 2009, Jonathan Safran Foer shows us that both aspects are good reasons for becoming a vegetarian or a vegan.

Foer argues that today, there is hardly any other ethical eating choice and that we should recognize the negative effects of meat production on our health and the environment.
