Here’s a little factoid from my spouse, who has travelled in China:

When they serve you chicken in a restaurant in China, they put the severed head on the side of your plate.

That is to show you it is fresh, ie, slaughtered on site.

This is because Chinese don’t trust chicken from outside the restaurant’s control in China.

The vegans with whom she was traveling freaked out when the dishes came to the table with the severed heads on the side.

Meanwhile the USDA wants to hobble small family farmers here with Orwellian crap like N.A.I.S.

Oh come on now. Cadmium, Lead, and melamine are fine nutritional products.

Yepper - the real intent is to demonstrate that all the dead dogs, from Chinese products, wasn't a fluke.

Just because I don't care for today's tasteless chicken doesn't mean I'm some kind of food nut. I eat everything, beef, pork, lamb, veal, turkey, fish, pizza, whatever.

I make my own homemade soups and many times a meal is just an easy soup, sandwich-on-crusty-bread and fresh fruit-cup dinner.

I always considered store bought chicken nuggets to be breaded chicken tumors. Never had them.

I grew up in the city but we were close enough to the farm to go and get our own chickens (and yeah they were still clucking)....Different times different ways

When common sense ruled. Now common sense is dying, as you know.

That’s nice. Organic is best.

I rarely eat at fast food places.

“Organic” I always laugh at that. All it means is that the pickers pee in the field.

That is an ignorant statement. You need to educate yourself on what organic means....including organic meat.

I am completely educated on organic... You a)have no sense of humor and b) think that ‘organic’ somehow makes food better. Nutritionally you have been proven wrong by lots of studies. You pay more for quality that may or may not be as good.

I buy at local farms because they are closer than the grocery store
