Läs Natalie Portmans tänkvärda krönika på Huffington Post (typ amerikas newsmill) om hur den nyutkomna boken Eating Animals av Jonathan Safran Foer (författare till Everything is illuminated) fick henne att bli vegan. Eating Animals går att beställa på Adlibris!
- I say that Foer's ethical charge against animal eating is brave because not only is it unpopular, it has also been characterized as unmanly, inconsiderate, and juvenile. But he reminds us that being a man, and a human, takes more thought than just "This is tasty, and that's why I do it." He posits that consideration, as promoted by Michael Pollan in The Omnivore's Dilemma, which has more to do with being polite to your tablemates than sticking to your own ideals, would be absurd if applied to any other belief (e.g., I don't believe in rape, but if it's what it takes to please my dinner hosts, then so be it).
