"Consider the Farmworkers"

Civil Eats has a sobering post, "The Ethics of Eating: Consider the Farmworkers," which discusses the living conditions of farmworkers in Marion County, Oregon.  

We're so fond, myself included, of complaining about the conditions of CAFOs, declaring them evil and feeling righteous for eating grass-fed, cage-free, humanely raised animals.  "Consider the Farmworkers" is a call for action to consider the human cost of the food we eat.
