Poisoning the Food Supply The American food supply has been contaminated by everything from pharmaceuticals in the water supply to various issues with Big Ag. The latest is the Bird Flu residues in pasteurized milk. How does that happen? The mainstream media passes it off as if it's magic with no explanation whatsoever. Luckily, trade journals such as Poultryproducer from the Poultry Industry Council gives us a likely reason here. The following is an excerpt from the article. In contrast to Britain and Europe, American farmers are still allowed to feed cattle and other farm animals ground-up waste from other animals including birds...Experts fear that H5N1, which was only first detected in cows a few weeks ago, may have been transmitted through a type of cattle feed called “poultry litter” – a mix of poultry excreta, spilled feed, feathers, and other waste scraped from the floors of industrial chicken and turkey production plants. In the UK and EU, feeding cows proteins from other animals has been tightly regulated since the outbreak of BSE – or ‘mad cow disease’ – 30 years ago. Experts are unsure but fear it could be the poultry litter feed used in the US that has passed the virus to cattle. Poultry excreta? OMG. What is wrong with this picture? Only in America. |
