Is it true that veal can be un born calf?

Answer 1

No. This would be an unacceptable illogical risk to the adult cow. Farms don't nor won't sacrifice the health and welfare of good productive animals for just a few pounds of meat to sell. Also, an unborn calf doesn't have much meat on it anyway, not even enough to consider good enough to be used as veal.

Veal is the nutritious and nutrient-rich meat derived from calves. Most veal comes from the male offspring of dairy cows (also referred to as dairy bull calves). Dairy cows must give birth annually to continue producing milk, but male dairy calves are of little to no value to dairy farmers, other than a very small select percentage that are raised to maturity and used as breeding stock. These male calves are used as the primary product source for veal throughout the beef industry. The majority of veal calves are "special-fed." A veal calf is raised until about 18 - 21 weeks of age, weighing up to 500 pounds. They are raised in specially designed facilities where they can be well cared for and monitored.

Answer 2

No, veal is meat from nonruminating calves (meaning they were not feed anything other than milk or a milk supplement). No meat or any other organs or any products are every used from unborn calves, calves that were born dead, or any calves that were not healthy from the time they are born till the time they are harvested.

Answer 3

NO.

While it is true that veal is cuts of meat from calves, they are most often butchered shortly AFTER they are weaned from the cow. Fetal calves do not and would not make very good meat for consumption.
