Hal Sparks thinks factory farming is no joke.
During one of his comedic performances, Sparks made humor of poor diets consisting of too many animal products. But in an interview he reveals the effects of raising animals for food is no laughing matter.
“The biggest issue for me is factory farming,” Sparks. “Because I can’t find an angle on it–and I dare anyone else to–that actually supports it in any way. It doesn’t make food cheaper and safer. It doesn’t make the environment better. It harms the people who consume it as well as the people who process it. And it’s horrible to the animals.”
What’s Sparks’ advice for the dying individual who wishes he’d had more time to spend with the family? Watch the clip below to find out.

While I am not a fan of factory farming, I wonder the rational that it DOESN’T make food cheaper? I know that when ever I buy locally and more humanely produced foods they are always more expensive. Perhaps this is a consequence of perceived value, but it really seems like it is cheaper.
