So, after reading the 4 page article on the NYT website, what do you think was the main point?
To let people know they are injecting ammonia into beef so they can make their own decision on wether or not to eat said beef. It’s simply investigative reporting. Do I think it is secretly PETA trying to destroy fast food chains to save poor innocent cows? No, but even if it were, injecting ammonia into meat destined for school children is something parents have a right to know. You should have heard the devestating few days on our local conservative talk show about the chicken being fed to the children at schools (they had guest that new the inside story). To be honest, I haven’t eating ground beef in over a decade, it’s garbage meat, period. My children never eat the school lunches or eat at fast rood joints.
I know all about the chicken, like I said on the other thread, my sister worked at a huge farm and operates 24 x 7 and she picked flats of eggs all night long. The chickens were bloody, featherless (from the small chicken wire cages) and hopped up on high levels of antibiotics to keep them from getting sick because of the filthy conditions they were raised in. The campbells would come and buy the played out hens (though campbells no longer uses them). They were disgusting, this is the mechanically seperate and (rejoined) chicken nuggets your kids are eating at school.
The ammonia is only apart of the larger point in the NYT article. The real point is that the claim that ammonia gets rid of e coli may not be true.
Natural times turned that point around and made their article about the dangers of the ammonia.
I haven’t eating ground beef in over a decade, it’s garbage meat, period.
And now, your real point. I get it, you don't like ground beef.
“To be honest, I haven’t eating ground beef in over a decade, it’s garbage meat, period.”
No, it is not. It is good meat but ground, that is all. Your childish (read: ignorant) views of this world are astounding.
