Meet Your Meat - This is a PETA sponsored site.  The video is VERY GRAPHIC.  I do not recommend near mealtime or if you have a weak stomach.  It's incredible that people can be so cruel to other living creatures.  Bear in mind not all animal processing facilities are not like this, but many are.    http://www.meat.org/
