Petermac33 - just curious - are you a veggie / vegan?

Is this the reason you gave up meat?

i became a veggie as i do not want to become part of this unconscionable process.

Kudos to you for standing up for what you believe in...

welcome to the food chain looser !

It's so easy to cut and paste a youtube vid to here.

I love meat.

What about the horrific way we treat poor tomatoes?

Tear them away from their parents with no anesthetic, pile them in cramped living conditions, chop them up live, pulverise them into sauce bottles and bolognese jars.

So inhumane. I'm gonna stop eating!

Most people that work in a chicken plant don't eat chicken, even though they are meat-eaters. I was one of those people. It's been years since I ate a piece of chicken. I can't even stand to smell it cooking without wanting to throw up. That ought to tell you something.

My point is that if these people that work in there can't stand to eat chicken, that if the average person knew what happens in there, that they wouldn't be able to eat it either. People need to become more informed

You really got to get out more PM33. As part of man month, KFC released a new burger today - the double

Novembars Cafe. Biggest burgers in the World Perth!

We have just taken posession of six young black ladies, Australops, that should lay in five weeks. I have had chooks before and forgotten how entertaining they can be and how tame they can get.

Peter Mac, I watched that movie, Food inc, by chance on a flight from Dubai. Makes you wonder how many western airlines would show it, but it was a real eye opener.

It really is a must see for any person who has a vague interest in agriculture and where their food comes from. It exposes the corporate control but is brilliantly enlightening in that it gives a lot of air time to traditional farmers who take good care of their stock.

There is a brilliant example of a famer who rears seriously free range chickens and slaughters them in the open air for the local market. The FDA did their damndest to close him down but he could demonstrate that his chicken carcases were as clean as bro, compared to the ones that came from the mechanised plants.

My old man reared chooks for years. You had to carve them. The ones we buy from the supermarket are mere organisms, loaded with organisms.

Cook em well, the bleach does not always hit all crannies!

while visiting my parents last week noticed the British Express newspaper on the table.

thought will have a quick browse, to see if can find any brainwashing articles.

struck gold,found this,

''Organic fruit and veg less good for you''

third paragraph down,

''For the broccoli, those grown NORMALLY had higher levels of antioxidants than the organic samples''.

so growing food using chemical fertilisers is considered normal?

what's next, GM food is to be considered normal?

even my dad, believer in everything the corporate media tells him was dumbfounded after reading this.

this article from the British Express is unadulterated clap-trap.

sad part now is, many of those sitting on the fence will now be influenced to start eating NORMAL food again after reading this article.

after watching the documentary Food Inc, i was appalled to see the super cramped conditions these chooks had to live their lives in.

how is it possible that meat from these chooks can be as healthy as chooks with space to exercise?

as for the burger pushers on this forum, are they aware that chooks/cows are fed GM corn?

so the next time you chomp on a burger, be aware you are eating franken food.

the meat becomes part of the food chain.


The Soil Association, a British environmental charity, stated in their report, "GM Crops-The Health Effects," that international research has found that milk, eggs and meat from GM-fed animals still contain the foreign DNA originally inserted into the GM crop.

The authors concluded, that "there are very good scientific reasons for being concerned about the safety of GM crops."

With the abundance of GM ingredients currently being used in processed foods of all kinds, you are likely exposed to FAR more GM DNA than you ever thought

Knew a bloke in Kiwi Land that drove a milk tanker and would not drink milk.

Knew a bloke in Kiwi Land that drove a beer tanker and would not drink beer.

Know a bloke in Bundaberg that works at the Bundaberg Rum Distillery and won't drink Bundaberg Rum. (I don't blame him because it is one of the worst rums in the world.)

Know a bloke who used to be a plumber, sticking his hands down other people's dunnies. He had to get a job as a cabbie so he could eat food again.

Saw a movie called Taxi and the bloke murdered a bunch of people.

Saw a movie called Collateral and the good guy won.

Sunday Night, Doo Do De Doot Do.

i had a quick look at trailer of the Earthlings Vid.

think that is the same vid i tried watching a few years ago.

one scene after about 10 minutes was of a beaten up looking dog in the street in India.

a refuse van[one of those that squash+ ground up] came by and a couple of blokes picked it up and threw it in,at that i had to switch off.

We, as humans, were always suposed to eat meat. If we wernt it would make us sick. I agree that in some ways that we farm and slaughter animals isnt the best way but how do we do it in a humane way?
The old bolt to the back of the skull is the quickest way Ive heard of, and the animal couldnt go through any suffering as it is instant.

If I had to I would kill and clean what I wanted to eat so really I dont care. I might eat more fish tho.

Agree.

However, if I can't get or have meat, green or brown lentils are the only thing that give me what I crave. Top tucker I reckon if you know how to make a good "Dahl".

Re food and the preparation thereof visit www.taste.com.au and www.food.com .

They say that fish feel no pain. I can verify that because any suicidal mackerel that jumps onto my macca spoon, gets pulled over the taff rail and into the cockpit, I share my rum with.

He feels no pain while I bleed and gut him and I feel no pain from missing his head with my mackerel donger and hitting my toe instead. Way to go.
