That being said, I'm a vegetarian for a reason. I just wonder which is the greater evil; the oil industry or the meat industry.... At least with cows the money goes to "local" farmers....
Plus, all of this only applies if their product is actually good and does what it says it does.

I worked in a beef packing plant a couple years ago... they sell the bones to a company that makes fake ivory piano keys. All the "waste" is used in pet food, and goes to a rendering plant across the street, which smells horrible. Even the teeth are sold to another company that does something with them. They really don't waste anything.
