The Animals We Don’t See

 

#TransitionRadioShow #TheAnimalsWeDontSee #FoodCulture #AnimalAgriculture #FoodChoices #ConsciousLiving #CriticalThinking #FoodSystems #MarkAndLynna We walk into a grocery store and see dinner. A package. A price. Something familiar. But somewhere before that package, there was an animal. How does that transformation become so ordinary that we barely notice it anymore? This week on Transition Radio Show, Mark and Lynna explore culture, psychology, economics, tradition, and the systems behind an ordinary meal—not to tell you what to eat, but to ask a more interesting question: How does something become so normal that we stop seeing it as a choice? Watch The Animals We Don’t See on Transition Radio Show with Mark and Lynna Cummings. Families pass down meals. Stores sell what people buy. Businesses respond to incentives. Traditions acquire meaning. And most of us don't investigate the entire history of dinner while standing in a grocery store after a long day. Maybe that's how something becomes almost invisible—not because somebody successfully hid it, but because it became ordinary. In The Animals We Don’t See, Mark and Lynna begin with meat and end up somewhere deeper: Not on meat. On attention. Once an ordinary choice becomes visible again, what responsibility—if any—comes with seeing more clearly? We hope to encourage careful thinking, respectful conversation, and genuine curiosity about one of history’s most influential movements.
