Libertary published its online edition of Roberta Kalechofsky's Vegetarian Judaism just as the nation was experiencing an outbreak of salmonella poisoning and the recall of hundreds of millions of tainted eggs from factory farms. The author warns about this sort of thing in her discussion of the horrors and health risks associated with agribusiness. Kalechofsky examines the conflict between consuming the products of factory farming and Jewish laws prohibiting animal suffering, environmental destruction, and waste.
