Life Goes On

midwest born and raised, but settled roots in various areas around the country/world. i've had ups and downs and try mostly to stay somewhere towards neutral. i have learned through everything, life does, in fact, go on.

MoJo’s Tom Philpott reports:

On Dec. 22, while even the nerdiest observers were thinking more about  Christmas plans than food-safety policy, the FDA snuck a holiday gift to  the meat industry into the Federal Register. The agency announced it had essentially given up any pretense of regulating antibiotic abuse on factory farms, at least for the time being.

Meanwhile, 25 percent of all beef, chicken, pork, and turkey tested positive for antibiotic-resistant bacteria, according to a recent study by the Translational Genomics Research Institute.

One of the reasons I’ve decided to go back to eating from a plant based diet.
