| Is the food already "contaminated" before we buy it and that's why WE need to "be food safe"? |
SuperMom101 Response to her post:
Thank you for always keeping us so well informed!
Last summer there was a recall of over 500,000,000 (that’s half a billion) eggs from two factory farms in Iowa because salmonella bacteria in the eggs may have sickened as many as 1,300 people.
And…29 People in 14 states diagnosed with salmonellosis – ConAgra Recalls Frozen Chicken Products
And…Campbell Soup recalled approximately 15,000,000 pounds of “SpaghettiOs with Meatballs” and…
The USDA needs to fix our food supply…not dinner! The "food" is contaminated before it leaves the supermarkets.
Best health always!
...additional comment posted on Food Politics:
This is how bizarre the 500,000,000 (that's half a billion) factory farmed egg recall is:
According to Food Production Daily, The FDA is responsible for egg safety when eggs are still in the shell, but the USDA takes over once they are broken. In addition, the FDA is in charge of chicken feed safety, while the USDA is responsible for the chickens. [Meanwhile] …the division of responsibilities between agencies was highlighted again last summer during the recall of more than half a billion eggs from two Iowa egg producers, thought to have sickened at least 1,900 people.
Meanwhile…as long as we cook the eggs from the sick chickens we’re okay?
I no longer buy factory farmed eggs. My families health is worth a few more bucks.
