Description:This philosophy essay proposes ethical arguments against factory farming by presenting an analogy about a person named Fred. Fred has recently had an accident that has made it difficult for him to enjoy the taste of chocolate. Suppose that Fred brutally tortures and slaughters puppies in his basement to produce a special chemical that allows him to enjoy chocolate, and without which he cannot enjoy the taste of chocolate. He is no healthier by consuming this chemical, and though he wishes he didn't have to torture the puppies, it is necessary to reach his ends.
