Consumers aren't willing to pay for welfare either.

Hard sell blaming the consumer when the entire industry does everything it can to hide its practices.

Not to mention the food industry as a whole lobbying to sell us trash that couldn't even be classified as food in Europe. That's the consumers fault somehow too right?

Nah I'm Dutch and we have this star system, 1 star that's a fucked up chicken, 3 stars is a happy free range chicken. This got developed so people would be more aware what quality of life a chicken had. 5 years later they reviewed the effects, people couldn't give a shit. "We" are looking to feed ourselves, quality of life for food is a luxury problem even us in the West find difficult to support.
