The problem with organic rules is that it only regulates what they're fed and what medications they're given. It doesn't provide any rules for how they're taken care of.

And "free-range," last I checked, had no legal definition. Seeing as it's the farmers who decide what's free-range and what's not, I don't put a lot of trust into it.

I've heard of that blood-type diet before, and to be honest, I haven't seen any studies that would support the idea. If you have, let me know. There are certainly vegans/vegetarians who are allergic to soy, but it does make things trickier.

Peter Singer wrote a book called The Way We Eat: Why Our Food Choices Matter (http://www.amazon.com/Way-We-Eat-Choices-Matter/dp/157954889X/sr=8-1/qid=1164730122/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/104-0232758-0738312?ie=UTF8&s=books), in which he follows the diets of several families, and I think he gives information on organic meat in the process.
