About This Quote

The turkeys I eat are raised on farms. They're different. They've signed on the dotted line. If you think about the life of an animal in a farm, you will find that it is not nearly as free as it is for us.

Because they are living in captivity, they have less control over their lives than we do, and because their lives are under constant surveillance, they do not feel safe. As a result, they are very low risk to eat. Turkeys raised in captivity are also known for having much lower levels of stress hormones than turkeys that live in the wild.
