I am working to make my omnivorous family a nearly vegetarian family. We eat eggs and cheese and some fish (special occasions like Christmas or when visiting other people and that's what's for dinner) and about 4lbs of chicken a week. This feeds a family of 5 for a whole week and sometimes longer. We try our best to buy naturally raised chicken-- sometimes unable to do so... but I bless the food and visualize the Chicken as if it were in a good life before cooking and while cooking and before consuming. The whole family then blesses their food before consuming.
In times of wanting (when we were almost homeless) we ate what was given. We blessed it and consumed it in a sacred manner. I feel that when people pontificate a vegan and organic diet they do so from a place of relative comfort and free from want.
