Probably applies to Canadians too.
This is bad advice, fellow Americans.
Look up where the recalls and violations have happened. Also, look up the cuts of meat.
Big numbers don’t mean all of America. What a stupid suggestion.
Sitting in a Heathrow terminal wondering, why am I going home?
I get my meat the way god intended, from the side of the interstate. Chicken of the pavement. Highway hamburger. Fauna ala Ford. Jeep jerky. The other black meat.
Stop buying meat at all. Let the industry collapse. It’s probably the only way the US meat industry will adopt better standards
Hello fellow americans! You guys doing OK over there? Things are pretty good here in Spain, language issues my biggest obsticle. But hey, you let me know when we americans are winning ok? Are we winning yet?
Shit’s okay in Australia too, we got problems but not openly toxic meat problems.
No. Canada still has proper rules and regulations in place…
Republicans actively endanger your life for personal gain. Its insane.
trump desperately trying to get argentinian beef to bypass meat inspections, which most other countries have banned already.
See? I told you so, bro. Industry can regulate itself just fine.
I don’t know why you’re laughing.
GOP finding out the hard way why rules exist.
Oh, they know. Which is exactly why they want to get rid of the rules that “prevent” (really just put in the absolute bare minimum of standards) companies from actively harming their customers and employees (too badly) to make a quick buck.
They’re just gonna make it illegal to publish about food safety and call it a day
Until dinner time, at least.
Sounds like a great time to go vegan. 🖖
or vegetarian. or stick to chicken. as per article in what it was recalling.
Yeah 'cause we know all the fresh veggie product from such brands as Taylor Farms is perfectly safe…
(jk going vegetarian or vegan is an admirable choice even if you do it noncommittally by reducing your animal protein consumption. Every 1 gram of animal protein required ~9g of feed depending on the animal.)
You… don’t… need to buy those manufactured food products, either, you realize? Chickpeas and rice, mushrooms, tofu, etc. can all lend you to making your own tasty recipes.
How long until I get my Vegan powers?
They start the first time you can mention you are vegan in a conversation that isn’t about food or animal products.
I use arch btw.
It’s milk n’ eeeeeegs, bitch!
It’s a gradual building process, but some perks happen very quickly. Like your whole body being in distinctly less pain - that can happen in days depending on your inflammation status. Or being super bloated because you started eating way too much fiber way too soon, that can happen in a day.
After a few years you may find your immune system starts to become superhuman. Not even joking, it’s kind of wild how much more resilient I am to sickness these days. Getting sick far less frequently, symptoms consistently becoming laughably mild, and duration is far shorter too.
I stopped craving junk food and lost the pudge I’d been carrying most of my life.
🙄
It’s a passive, you just statistically live longer and feel better.
there is education that goes along with it to actually manage nutrients/macros than just ‘go vegan’ and leave it at that
beans are not a protein that every body can digest
That’s why I said statistically. Yeah you can go vegan on oreos and french fries and drag down the stats, but on the whole vegans do better.
It know, not a great superpower.
well, I’m a decade in, and still no powers D:
You have to be more righteous about it
i think that is the powers of a vegan. as far as ive ever experienced with them.
once you go vegan you instantaneously get the power of a smug sense of superiority. though, admittedly, it doesn’t do anything but make you an annoying asshole.
It sounds like you’re a vegan…
That will get you sick or kill you too, I’m afraid.
Sounds like a great time to die or get sick.
What if I can’t afford to get sick or die?
In that case the government will step in to help you to get sick and die.
Then you’ll get sick and die.
It’s free. But also it costs money. But it totally also doesn’t cost any money.
It’s the cheapest there is!
No seriously, that is the cheapest we got.
As a vegan, uh, no. Lol. Quite the opposite.
Did we already memory hole the diarrhea lettuce?
Don’t forget the killer frozen blueberries.
That’s the real danger. It’s a misconception that vegans eat a ton of tasteless nearly nutritionless lettuce but we probably do eat way more berries than others.
If I’m not buying meat, I can afford the berries.
Under today’s FDA, everybody dies of foodborne illness.
equal opportunity
nah. I’ll just continue purchasing meat from my local butcher that sources from local farms.
thanks though.
Officially inspected meat from the US is not good enough for export into the EU. How much worse could uninspected meat be?
We had some scares in the past. We learned from our mistakes. The EU actually does a lot of shit right.
167,000 pounds? Is that Joe’s backyard barbeque? He does cook up a lot of burgers…
Or maybe just look at the recall list https://www.fsis.usda.gov/recalls-alerts/star-meat-delivery-inc--recalls-raw-pork-beef-and-goat-products-produced-without
Don’t promote this wasteful sensationalism. Maintain sanity.
OP doesn’t want you to say this. Thank you, though. This is the way.
This recall list is for things the grocery store or restaurants see, not consumer sized cuts. When was the last time you bought 30lbs of menudo mix?
individual consumer packages may not bear this labeling, as retail stores may have applied their own stickers with pricing and safe handling instructions
The recalled meat could still have ended up in packages for consumers. What they’re saying is that you can’t know since retail stores would have cut up this meat and repackaged it.
Call your butcher.
Thing is, many of these things grow over time, and - especially with the active gutting of regulatory and oversight bodies - there’s a decent chance that the list isn’t comprehensive.
It’s also one of the reasons why I have avoided US meat products and grabbed stuff with a maple leaf instead, because it wasn’t hard to see this coming (and coming and coming)
…where do you grab it from?
Canada no doubt.
You need to set your comfort level where it suits you, sure. However best to go into this informed with the actual available data. I’m not a vegetarian, but excessive meat waste really makes me cringe. Agree for future purposes, as with everything - avoid buying American (US) whenever possible.
Whatever man I want to die anyway.
I wonder how much legit suicidal ideation has gone up under trump? Its probably gone up globally too. Everyone I know is always tired and hopeless about the future. Even kids are down.
