Yeah. Conventional animal products aren't as healthy as naturally raised ones anyway. Chickens can have absolutely awesome fatty acid profiles, same goes for pigs, but the corn and soy they're fed makes the fat of these animals toxic due to to PUFA.@Kartoffel it is part of the flawed logic. The animals should feed on pastures not corn and soy.
And according to Shawn Baker, these CAFO raised animals eat mostly the inedible parts of soy and corn. It's what was already going to waste anyway. Not only that, but they make nourishing animal protein from the lesser-quality plant proteins from grains and legumes. I believe the conversion is 0,6 grams of plant protein to 1 gram of quality animal protein. This is for cows, as far as I know.
