I don’t think it’s necessary to have a detailed knowledge of it to be vegetarian or vegan, but I think a lot of people need to understand that the natural relationship between humans and livestock (a relationship that’s been perverted by factory farming) is a symbiotic one.  We eat what is essentially chickens menses and in exchange we protect them from predators, give them food and medical care and shelter.  It’s like one of those birds that cleans alligator’s teeth.

Then when it dies you boil it for a good long while and make a stew, a little morbid, but certainly not unethical.
