Meatless Monday Inspiration

I found this article disturbing enough to warrant its own "emergency" blog post. And, it happens to be (meatless) Monday, so this is kind of perfect.


If you don't know by now, some major meat suppliers are shipping chicken et al to China for processing, and then back to the U.S. for distribution. Well, this article shows just how disturbing that process is - with China's lax food safety regulations, etc.

Workers at Husi Food factory in Shanghai before authorities suspended the plant.

I think the last paragraph is the best takeaway - it calls out the major food corporations who have plants over in China. Keep in mind - just a few suppliers of beef and chicken own majority of the market. Which means, unless you're eating LOCAL, ORGANIC meat, that can be traced to its roots... well. You know.

HERE IS THE ARTICLE. READ IT.
