This book really tries to keep the argument about eating meat to a philosophical and yet factual point of view, focusing more on how we got here and the future of the industry. The questions posed in this book are all very relevant and made me reflect on the choices I make when I eat. Going deep into the personal experience of meals as a familial, cultural and religious meeting point. My only critique would be to say that for someone from different cultures the book feels more like a comment on the American system (how businesses are run) and therefor is hard for me personally to apply to my choices while living abroad. Or maybe this is just a loophole that I have created for myself ontop of the very few meat options that you find where I currently live. In the end, I believe that this book is a great starting point to begin the journey into selective eating, keeping the focus to the morality and quality of your choices without shaming anyones choices. Rather by focusing on the author's own take away from his journey. As a side note the section about pandemics really hits much harder after Covid. On the narration, I found thatit seamed too slow at times, to the point that I wondered if the app froze, while at other times the pauses seamed appropriate to let the statement sink in.
