Its virtually impossible to eliminate all animal products from ones consumption; whats the point if you still cause animal death without knowing it?
Yes, it is very difficult to eliminate all animal products from one’s consumption, just as it is impossible to eliminate all accidental killing and infliction of harm that results from our activities. But this cannot justify making it “open season” for any kind of abuse of animals. The reasonable goal, given the realities, is to minimize the harms one causes. The point, then, is that a great deal of suffering is prevented.
