On the subject of lamb...
Why is it that most people (who eat meat) are quite fine with the idea of eating sheep that are less than 12 months old i.e. lamb, but at the same time are morally opposed to eating cows that are less than 12 months old i.e. veal?

Lambs spend their lives gambolling on fields in the sunshine.
Veal-calves spend their lives locked in a crate unable to move.
