Yes. Do you know how they catch shrimp?

Lower legs... wait, wrong calf

Yes I do. Most veal comes from the young males of dairy herds and if they weren't used for veal they would be shot within days of birth because dairy herds need hardly any males. There is an interesting thread on the same subject here: http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/1368732

Fat little baby cows that get fed milk and never touch the ground. They are delicious.
-
yep. I especially like milk-fed veal.

When I got the picture decades ago I quit eating it. If I were a guest I would eat and enjoy, because at that point the damage had already been done.

it comes from a baby calf. the farmers whisk the baby away from its mother, put it in a stall where it can't move, the farmers then bottle feed them and then..... i don't eat veal or pork or beef. i only eat farm raised tilapia fish and organic chicken.

Yes I do. And they are not baby cows. They are usually 450-500 lbs nowadays. It is simply a way to use the bull calves that would otherwise be destroyed from the dairy industry. With the advent of artificial insemination, they just don't need dairy bulls anymore. One bull can service thousands of cows. So they feed them the surplus dairy products and raise these once useless animals into food animals. I've been to farms myself. I haven't seen the horrid conditions that I've seen in one farm on TV. They were in small pens but with other calves, not by themselves and they are huge when taken to slaughter, not a sweet little baby calf. It is actually healthier for the young newborn calves to be houses separately as they stay free from disease this way until they are stronger. They do this with young heifer calves, too. Once they get some age on them, they usually move them to group pens. They don't even give them hormones anymore.
