I applaud the “beef” industry for its first attempt to take a long hard look at how badly their industry has become. The greed and ignorance of meat producers has created ‘tainted beef’. And over the past decades this has created an attitude of ‘acceptance’ of poor practice and diminishing quality.
I recently watched the documentary “What the Health.” I now avoid not only beef, but all meat products. I refuse to eat chemical laden meat. The callous treatment of animals and the greed to pump up profits by using chemicals that are potentially carcinogenic has turned me off.
But my ‘beef’ is also with Health Canada. Under their watch little has been done to educate the consumer of the dangers of consuming the additives in ‘meat’. Agricultural Ministers have turned a blind eye to the conditions the animals have had to endure before being slaughtered in some of the most inhumane methods possible. Again for ‘profit’ not conscious.
Start to push the meat industry to change – our health depends on it as do the animals subjected to pain and suffering their entire lives.
Really. Do humans have NO ability to be better stewards?
