Gas Treated Meat
Published:
Target Corp yesterday said it is working to add labels that warn consumers when meat is treated with carbon monoxide to make it look fresh. Federal regulators faced criticism for allowing the practice, which critics call unsafe.
I have an idea. I think they should write an obituary for the cow. That would have all the dates - born, slaughtered, packaged.....

A thing about cows. When I was growing up, my Dad raised mink on his farm. (I know, the anti-fur people will freak over this). We had thousands of the critters, raised solely for the fur. He spent a lot of time grading the fur, and determining which ones to breed, and which ones to kill. Do you know how he killed them? He tried carbon monoxide from the car. And various other methods I suppose. But the most humane and quickest was just getting ahold of them by hand, (with very thick leather welding gloves 'cause they really bite hard) and broke their necks. Also, to produce the best fur he could, he would go to a little slaughter house down the road and buy tripe, which is from a cow to mix with their food. So I often watched them bring a cow or steer into the pen, shoot it in the head with a .22 rifle, and proceed to butcher it (without going into much detail). I guess my point in all this is that I grew up seeing this, and it's quite normal. These days people, including my kids (25, 18, 14) really have no idea where our food comes from. They go into a store and see the pretty packaging. And I regret that they have never seen what I did. I'm sure there are members on LP that remember growing up on a farm, and this brings back memories.
I don't believe in abusing animals for fun, but remember, we do not live in the Garden of Eden. God put man in dominion over animals.
Then I went to a friends for dinner, an Aussie chap cooking lamb, my goodness the whole place stunk of bad lamb because he started cooking it and didn't know it was bad until it was too late. As the Aussies say: "it was a bit on the nose". So we ended up having rice and veggies.
I used to enjoy hunting. When I lived in Ohio, I would go deer hunting practically in my back yard. I tried to shoot a buck that had bigger antlers that the last one. And I always used the meat. Or rabbits, squirrels, (no antlers of course, LOL).
I would never say or suggest that anyone that is a vegetarian that they are wrong for not eating meat. But on the other hand, I happen to like steaks and hamburgers, a lot. I would not want anyone telling me I'm wrong for eating meat. Don't misunderstand, I'm not saying you said that, but I don't think you need to feel bad if you like meat. If you happen to like turkey, enjoy it without guilt!
At any rate, happy Thanksgiving!
They wax apples and maybe other fruits, they also might inject them to make them look red and or fresh, they give cows hormones and antibiotics that you drink with the milk and maybe with the meat too.
They irradiate meats, and many other kinds of foods, maybe most kinds of food.
They do gene transplantation and or other kinds of genetic engineering so when you eat an apple you might also eat genes from flies, roaches or whatever, it is not possible to know what they have done as they don't tell you, nor do they label the foods with the information, there are no longer natural foods to eat if you buy your food at a store, all foods have been tampered with in more ways than one.
Even the air that we breathe and the water that we drink are poisoned and nasty.
Fluoride and chlorine being 2 of the poisons that they add to the water:

Also there is a certain amount of maggots, flies etc. that is allowed in processing food.

Tenaj, I was in the food business for many years. You forgot mouse droppings. :-)
