People think that veal is all calves kept in boxes and prodded with sticks, and some of the French methods of veal rearing do leave a bit to be desired (if you care about such things). Hence the difference between white and rose – free range – veal. As for what makes it economical in France... I'll go with really massive EU farming subsidies...
