Some people, especially on farms, keep pigs, cows, chickens, and other such animals as pets; later, they eat them? Is this wrong, or healthier, since you know where your food came from?

It would depend on how hungry they are -- when people are really, really hungry they even eat each other!

ofcourse it has became an usual thing in many countries, many foreign countries eat dogs, but in india they can eat except dog, they eat all the animals except dog. It is not good at all because they are all animals which understand our mentality and it helps us at any time. The cow converts its blood to milk but we drink it without any pain. chicken lay eggs but we eat both like each and every pet is serving in some manner, but we are faithless people eat all these things without knowing its values. Because we are the wild and cruelest animals with speaking and thinking power.

People who keep cows, goats, sheep etc hardly view them as pets. As far as eating the meat goes... it´s probably healthier that the meat you buy from the supermarket, you know exactly what the animal has been fed! No additives or bad things in their feed. It is human nature to breed and eat animals, there is nothing morally wrong. If someone wants to be a vegetarian or vegan that´s their choice.

Eating your pet is fine as long as it's one of the normal things to eat like pigs and cows and stuff like that. never eat a cat or dog. that's just nasty. and I wouldn't say it's healthier but it probally makes you feel a little better about eating it considering you know where it came from.
