10 Must Read Books If You Eat Meat

And even if you are vegan and care about animals, let these books transform your relationship with meat and livestock.

I understand that the act of eating meat is a loaded and complex topic, one that many people feel very strongly about — both opposed to and in favor of.

It is important to educate ourselves about the areas we support and oppose continually. I challenge everyone reading this to take this quote seriously and delve deeper into their current convictions.

“I never allow myself to hold an opinion on anything that I don’t know the other side’s argument better than they do.”

Charlie Munger

So even if you don’t eat meat, developing a more nuanced perspective and philosophy is important, as forcing others to give up something that nourishes them will never end collaboratively.

But if you eat meat, these books will deepen your connection with animals and their roles in ecosystem functioning.

They will also present you with pressing questions about where you source your meat, how those animals were raised, the true costs of the industrialized meat industry, and how we can begin to create a more regenerative livestock industry every single time we choose to cook meat.

There are no black-and-white answers when it comes to the complex questions we all face. I invite you to browse the books below and start with one that catches your curiosity. It may be a catalyst for you to change your mind.

Books for anyone who eats meat and cares about the welfare of livestock animals.

And yes I get a small affiliate commission from Amazon if you buy a book using the link attached to the book image — but think of it as Jeff Bezos’s fund to accelerate regenerative agriculture adoption.
