I could have sworn people were losing their shit over "frankenfoods" not so long ago. How fast things change.

I see that idiotic cue-ball on TV almost daily pushing A&W "antibiotic-free beef"....but their "not quite meat" burgers are the rage. They must think people are morons. Actually....uh, never mind.




Not to worry..................................


Just because some chemical corporations and junk food



emporiums noted for the toxic quality of their sodium and fat laced "organic" food are advertising it heavily......................


DOES NOT MEAN it is widely accepted by the public!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well - TO BE FAIR - all those Nitrites and Nitrates ARE LISTED................................


on your package of hot dogs or sausages!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



As for "head meat" and what I the layman would refer to as "organ meat" - surely EVERYBODY has heard of the stuff that goes into



things like Bologna and hot dogs - by which I mean I was especially impressed to read some years back that ground up Hog bladders



apparently including the prostate gland - are supposedly considered suitable for hot dogs!!!!!!!!



No word on what becomes of Hog testicles though!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



On the plus side - hog marketers have found a nice new market for Pigs Ears...............................


dried and sold as a doggy TREAT at Bulk Barn and other such locations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Waste not - want not!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHatever. Any stuff not naturally in meats makes it suspect. It's why hubby and I eat mostly wild. And a lot of that crap affects the flavour, as well. We want to preserve foods, we can it, dry it, smoke it, or freeze it, not add crap to it.
Oh hey, I get it. We don't buy store bought meat either. We get ours from my brother-in law's farm. Everything is naturally raised, naturally fed, hormone-free and anti-biotic-free.


The reason CO2 is used for meat packaging is because oxygen makes organic material rot really fast. Carbon monoxide found in meats is usually from some sort of smoking process. I can almost guarantee you if you smoke wild meat you'll find traces of CO in it as well when you're done.



But if you want a really good reason to not buy meat from the store, this is a doozy. I now this happens because I have a friend who quit her job over it. When something like say, chicken that's sitting in the grocery cooler shelf reaches it's best before date, she was told to take the meat, unwrap it, dump it in a vat of ice water to sit, rinse it off then repack it and mark it as fresh packed that day. And that shit was going on years ago. I've heard other "rumours" about that same process from other people as well.

Yeah - tv show W-5 did an expose of how supermarkets "recycle" food nearing its "best before" date!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Repackaging it and often putting it into pre-packaged meals etc!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



And frankly I have had my suspicions about a certain local market that I GUESSED used to occasionally "repackage" bags of milk......................


you know - those 4 litre packs that have 3 separate bags inside..........................


and I would buy a pack and one of the 3 bags would GO BAD at lightning speed..................................


and it happened often enough that I concluded the market was playing "mix and match" switching in older bags along with the newer



ones to make it easier to get rid of aging milk and the market then playing innocent when one bag went rotten really fast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Happily the store seems to have dropped that BAD HABIT...........................................


habit after people caught on and the store milk sales plummeted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All calves get shots. It's illegal to sell otherwise.

Oh dear me..........................enjoy that meat while you can!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


There are a lot of people who are OBLIVIOUS to LIE-beral hostility...............................


to people who bypass the LIE-beral supply chain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And in the process - do an end run around LIE-beral taxes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I know a certain number of hobby farmers and it is a fact the LIE-beral govt would like to SHUT SUCH PEOPLE DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Such people are seen as a nuisance - stealing LIE-beral gravy with their under the table deals............................


while at the same time they DEMAND good road service - meaning pot holes filled and snow plowed efficiently.............................


so they can swiftly COMMUTE to city jobs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Even worse - as Wynne-bag Ontari-owe LIE-berals will tell you - is the country persons BITCHING about fallen power lines!!!!!!!!!!!!


LIE-berals are GROSSLY OFFENDED at having to supply that costly service to country dwellers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Supplying power to condo towers is much cheaper and is PREFERRED by LIE-berals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


LIE-berals truly want us all emasculated and impoverished and jammed into little boxes in the concrete canyons ...........................


that LIE-berals have designed for us - for our "own good"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Meaning LIE-berals expect to benefit greatly from their selfish GREED...................................


after we are rendered poor and semi employed and desperate for govt aid that LIE-berals will dole out................................


in exchange for our VOTESl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



As for wild meat - our LIE-beral overlords DESPISE people who hunt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Hunters are all regarded by LIE-berals as mouth breathing Troglodytes that have FAILED to become extinct!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


This is why LIE-berals are so happy about HARASSING legal gun owners - that LIE-berals consider hunters to be..............................


an evolutionary DEAD END!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unvaccinated cattle can't graze. It's a death sentence for a calf.

Maybe not. I don't think these standards apply to "wild" meat? (Depending where it was obtained). They also don't let me know whether, or when, a sample has been tested from the actual meat that's on my plate. There are risks associated with everything we ingest; some easily identified and some not. 'Education' about Canadian regulations-on-paper may not be a big help there.
Yep, life's full of risks.
We'd rather accept risks from wild meats than the chemically-laden crap from commercial enterprises, for the most part.

Better to let them suffer and die than give them a vitamin boost when they are born, or an anti-biotic for sick cows or calves. Vitamins/anti-biotics good for humans bad for livestock phuck me unreal. Growth hormones were and are the target of elimination in livestock and obeying the cooling off period of selling livestock after treatment so infected meat does not hit the food chain.

Geee, how did cattle ever survive before vaccinations were discovered?

They suffered in some really big ways Black leg decimated some herds they were culled and destroyed in mass amounts. Also historically herds were small with high calf death, since most farms grew for themselves and urban centers were small on the most part.

If your pet is sick do you take it to the vet to be treated?

p.s. the green was by mistake

And now cattle are subject to superviruses because the bugs are developing resitances to regular anti-biotics.
As time passed, farmers were becoming more and more aware of stuff affecting their beasts and so were able to combat stuff easier and faster. And that's beside some cattle becoming resistant to infections and stuff, too. And it isn't as if cattle can't be contaminated in feed lots and other commercial venues.
You want to eat chemical concoctions, you go right ahead. I don't.

So you are a rancher? Cause I've never seen any of this in our herd, our family has raised cattle since 1920, how long have you been raising cattle?

And WHAT does that have to do with LIE-beral desire.............................


to OWN EVERYTHING..................................


to CONTROL EVERYTHING...................................


and to be RESPONSIBLE FOR NOTHING?????????



And your claim that "un-vaccinated cattle cannot graze"................................


sounds like UNSUBSTANTIATED Fake News!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


What it apparently comes down to is that un-vaccinated cattle cannot remain healthy under the feedlot conditions...............................


that LIE-berals so often allow to prevail!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Twenty odd years ago the alleged largest cattle feed lot in Ontari-owe was located north of Oshawa.........................


and it was quite a sight- 150 or more acres of MUD laced with manure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


An OBVIOUS HEALTH ISSUE for the THOUSANDS of animals packed onto that land.........................................


and all living and eating - crowded together like that ...................................


in an ankle deep swamp of mud and their own droppings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Cattle graze just fine in HEALTHY SURROUNDINGS - as the cattle owned by neighbours of my inlaws proved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And the FACT REMAINS - that beef laced with some anti-biotics is still better for you......................................


than the ARTIFICIAL "its not meat" CRAP being peddled!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


There is ample reason to BEWARE of non meat products!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


We have only to look at the sudden health trouble of people who thought vaping was more healthy than tobacco!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Or we could look at the consequences of using artificial sweeteners that are supposed to be better for you than sugar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Or we could discuss the fact that margarine may taste like butter but that does NOT make it good for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Fake meat is just another DIET FAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh.............better be careful there....................................


AnnaEmber might be one of those "anti vaxers" who thinks nature should take its course..................................


and thin the human herd with Measles and Mumps and Rubella etc!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


She probably objects to humans being vaccinated - just as much less COWS getting shots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So that makes you omniscient? lol
I don't raise cattle. I raise chickens. My cousin raises cattle (and bison).
So you don't think viruses can affect cattle like they do humans? hahahaha
Like I said, You want to eat chemical concoctions, you go right ahead. I don't.
