BUYER BEWARE......

Did you know that it's perfectly legal for grocery stores to sell meat with food poisoning bacteria on it?  Believe it or not, it's true...

Car manufacturers cannot sell unsafe cars, toy manufacturers cannot sell unsafe toys, but, the meat industry can absolutely put meat in our grocery stores that are full of food poisoning bacteria....the USDA states it's "the consumers responsibility to make sure the meat is handled properly"...WHAT????  They know this meat is contaminated and it gets to the stores anyway???

So, what the USDA is saying is it's our fault when we get sick.....it's our fault when a hamburger that may be under-cooked is fed to a 3 year old and the child dies....The leading cause of food poisoning in the United States is Salmonella...140,000 Americans get sick eating EGGS infected with Salmonella and 200,000 people get sick from it eating POULTRY infected with it, and these are the reported cases...who knows how many other people are sick with this food poisoning and don't realize why.  A poultry science professor working for the meat industry, (of course), stated that it's just too expensive not to sell salmonella-positive chicken, because again, 80% of all poultry is contaminated.  And this is only Salmonella poisoning.  

What about E-coli?  You know what that is, right?  E-coli is from feces....E-coli is found in 2/3 of ALL BEEF and 80% of POULTRY that we buy right in our grocery stores.  The Court of Appeals allows this because they state, 'housewives aren't idiots, they know how to cook'.  Are you kidding me??

Then we have Listeria....this thrives in cold temperatures...this bacteria is found in processed meats, i.e., deli meats, hot dogs, etc.  But don't worry, the powers that be have decided they can get rid of this potentially deadly bacteria...they have managed to manufacture a bacteria-eating virus that has been approved by the FDA.  So, what this means is they will now spray this manufactured VIRUS-COCKTAIL on to these processed meats to protect us.  Or, they are finding ways just to put this virus directly into the feed of the animals that the processed meats are coming from.  The meat industry states consumers shouldn't have any problem with this because there's bacteria on the meat anyway.  What happens down the road when they find out all the health-related illnesses this manufactured virus  causes to the human body?  Then what, who will pay the price?  

I don't know about you, but none of this is acceptable to me.  I always truly believed our government  hadollow strict rules and regulations to keep our food supply SAFE.....that is so NOT TRUE.  The "stuff" that goes on is absolutely mind boggling to me.

The next time you or your family member has a stomachache and diarrhea, don't be so quick to blame it on the "stomach bug" that's going around.....the "bug" was probably on your dinner plate......
