Just wanted to give a heads up on this recall as it covers at least 11 different states. This is just another example of how dangerous and vunerable our Nations Food Supplies are.

Here we go again and to my horror it always seems like the hospitals and schools seem to be the main focus of these recalls. Nothing is going to change until we get some conscientious legislation to catch this at the slaughter house levels. This may never happen because if you start checking for e-coli it will only be a matter of time before people will want reassurances against even more dangerous matters like BSE. This will upset the meat industry who by and large are some of the biggest contributors to political campaigns. We quit eating meat many years ago because of foresight into the growing potential for alzheimer's type disease and ethical reasons such as the insane and unbelievable slaughter house practices.

Interestingly, I checked the TOPPs website last week when this story first broke and they had no information for public safety available. I did write a letter to the company and told them all I could find were pages of explanations as to have safe their meat products were. It has since been amended.

And this time there isn't a little of Chinese lead paint in it...

I am beginning to wonder if all these health related recalls aren't just the result of a change in the way things are analysed or of a more active action from the authorities.
