Jonathan Safran Foer on the Ellen Show, with bonus videos. Eating meat may be natural—but the way we’re raising it no longer is natural, or kind. Swine flu is called swine flu for a reason—factory farms create disease, cause climate change, poison or waterways…and cage-free means a chicken gets to live in 67 inches, the size of a sheet of paper.
