Future Farmers of America, Pig Auction, Circle of Life
A detailed account is given of purchasing a pig at a Future Farmers of America (FFA) auction at the Alameda County Fair. The process involves outbidding others for a child's prize animal, which is then sent to a professional butcher. The ethics of meat consumption and the "circle of life" are discussed in contrast to Mark Zuckerberg's public stance on only eating what he kills.
