       You really are proving to be MUCH too stupid to discuss   
   things like this, Booger. You are always confused, wandering   
   in a bewildered fog between your own ears. The product   
   provided is meat. The meat does not occur without animals   
   being provided with life THROUGH BREEDING, resulting   
   in the animals who actually ARE the product. You don't   
   understand the difference between providing life through   
   breeding, and the concept of producing life from lifeless   
   materials.
