The honoring of my food is where I arrived quite naturally so. The ideal would be to not only grow and raise every being I eat but also to take its life in a meaningful and respectful way - have heard stories of cows readily sacrificing themselves to their farming parents when they felt it was their time to die, offering no resistance to be killed.
For all the care and consideration that is fortunately going towards the brutal and reckless slaughter of animals, I feel plants get little to no respect, sympathy nor veneration when being eaten. They are chugged down just as unconsciously like a gallon of water. It all needs to be respected and venerated, at least for me in my own life.
