American animal "farms" are a dirty and unhygienic mess, and the fact that people still eat their products in the US makes people elsewhere cringe in horror.

If someone asked me to describe the animals rolling in and meat out of Tönnies Factories I would use the same words to describe it.

Our meat isn't that much better (still better than in the US, but the prepackaged stuff in the supermarket is still low quality), no reason to be smug here and riding the high horse
