Showing Original Post only (View all)There Have Been A Bunch Of Contaminated Foods Lately [View all]
McDonald's onions, Boar's Head, Coctco's waffles and chicken, now a rash of carrots.
There are many ways that our food can get contaminated but one thing that stands out to me is how fast we are able to determine what food was contaminated and be able to quickly issue alerts to publicize to the public about what is contaminated and have the products quickly pulled from the shelves.
We may not have that luxury anymore. Deregulation and cost cutting is coming. I can envision scenarios where many people get sick and die and the cause of their illness is never determined. Life and death just go on until the contaminated food is all eaten up.
Coming to America.

Americans alive today are spoiled. They have never lived in a fascist or third world country.
