I'd like to see where you got that definition. It's my understanding that "veal" is just a culinary term used to described meat that comes from young calves. There are at least 3 different kinds of veal thant I know of:
1) milk fed veal.
2) non milk fed veal
3) veal that comes from calves only a few days old.

Thanks Dun."in all true veal they are not allowed to eat grains or grass"Therefore a calf that has done so would be baby beef or calf meat.
\What is Veal?
Veal is the meat from a calf or young beef animal. A veal calf is raised until about 16 to 18 weeks of age, weighing up to 450 pounds. Male dairy calves are used in the veal industry. Dairy cows must give birth to continue producing milk, but male dairy calves are of little or no value to the dairy farmer. A small percentage are raised to maturity and used for breeding.
Calf: A calf is a young bovine of either sex that has not reached puberty (up to about 9 months of age), and has a maximum live weight of 750 pounds.

Lets see.... We cut their balls off
We burn their horns off or cut em off
We Brand em with hot irons
We shove our entire arm up their woohoo just to see whats going on.
The we sell em and they live shoulder to shoulder in a mud feedlot.
Sounds like great treatment to me... Veal folks arent doing anything wrong.
