Gary Yourofsky (Testimonials- excerpts)
I've been a vegetarian for 15 years and have been slowing giving up dairy and eggs. As I bawled my eyes out watching the last video of the beatings and pleasure being taking in hurting these animals, I vowed to not purchase another animal product again~ Keli
Thank you for speaking, filming, and posting your YouTube video. Last week a friend shared it on Facebook, and watching it was the final straw that has made me decide to strive to do no harm in my buying and eating habits~ Scott French

The standard diet of a meat-eater is blood, flesh, veins, muscles, tendons, cow secretions, hen periods and bee vomit. And once a year during a certain holiday in November, meat-eaters use the hollowed-out rectum of a dead bird as a pressure cooker for stuffing. And people think vegans are weird because we eat tofu?~ Gary Yourofsky
