“The growth of the American food industry will always bump up against this troublesome biological fact: Try as we might, each of us can only eat about fifteen hundred pounds of food a year. Unlike many other products - CDs, say, or shoes - there's a natural limit to how much food we each can consume without exploding. What this means for the food industry is that its natural rate of growth is somewhere around 1 percent per year - 1 percent being the annual growth rate of American population. The problem is that [the industry] won't tolerate such an anemic rate of growth.” TryingYearsMeanFactsProblemMightGrowthNaturalProductsIndustryLimitsPercentHundredRateShoesPopulationPoundsTolerateFifteenCdsBumpsAnnualsTroublesomeExplodingFood IndustryAmerican Food Book:The Omnivore's Dilemma: The Search for a Perfect Meal in a Fast-Food World Source: The Omnivore's Dilemma: The Search for a Perfect Meal in a Fast-Food World

“Today's fishing industry supplies land farms with fish as well. Over fifty percent of the fish caught is fed to livestock on factory farms and "regular" farms. It is an ingredient in the enriched "feed meal" fed to livestock. Farm animals, like cows, who by nature are vegans, are routinely force-fed fish as well as the flesh, blood, and manure of other animals. It may take sixteen pounds of grain to make one pound of beef, but it also takes one hundred pounds of fish to make that one pound of beef.” WellsMayTodayForceAnimalBloodLandIndustryPercentHundredCaughtFishesFleshMealsFiftyFishingPoundsFedsIngredientsFarmsVeganFactoriesCowsGrainSuppliesSixteenBeefManureLivestock Author:Sharon Gannon
