Robert Grillo<br />

Farm to Fable<br />

Why do the vast majority of us continue to consume animals when<br />

we could choose otherwise? What are the cultural forces that<br />

drive our food choices? These are the fundamental questions<br />

founder and director of Free from Harm, Robert Grillo sought to<br />

answer in writing his new book – Farm to Fable: The Fictions of<br />

Our Animal-Consuming Culture. We caught up with Robert to discuss<br />

some of his conclusions as to how fictional narratives<br />

orchestrated by the multi-billion dollar marketing campaigns of<br />

the animal agricultural industries keep people from consciously<br />

choosing to live compassionately.<br />
