The disconnection from where food actually comes from is one our weirdest blind spots in modern society. People want meat wrapped in plastic from the supermarket, devoid of context, but they don’t want to confront the reality of animal husbandry or the moral nuance that goes with it.

We are about to became Wagyu farmers and most of our friends and family (who eat meat) have made comments such as;

“Oh, it’s so cruel!”

“Shame you have to eat them?!”

“How long do they live before they’re murdered?”

Modern cows ONLY exist because humans utilise their innate ability to turn plant matter into high quality human food. These magnificent animals are part of a relationship that humans have shaped over millennia. Without that relationship, they wouldn’t be born at all…they’d never see the sun, taste grass, have companionship, raise calves if they weren’t the best way to turn plant material into high quality human food. Wagyu are the Kings and Queens of this and they are treated as such. Short but sweet lives, surely better than no life at all?
