I my world I recognise that although chickens may be quite tasty, this is a trivial reason to exploit these creatures. It is unnecessary. For the sake of argument, let's say I substitue lentils in my diet for chicken. Now please make your arguement of how my consumption of lentils causes unnecessary pain and suffering.
What is trivial to you is not trivial to me. The pain of the chickens is necessary to my non-trivial delight in chicken marsala.
