Holy Crap! I just bought two packages of low calorie pork and chicken hot dogs today. I've known for quite a while that "processed" meats are bad for a person's health, but "Holy Crap!" - must be something the commies invented!

I did. It's largely sensationalist inflammatory rubbish. PM me if you want to get into the specifics.

It's still better to handle your own food. Hunt for venison, raise rabbits in the back yard and a small chicken coop.

You are in control that way.

To be fair, 99% of the world's population doesn't have that luxury-relying on their own hunting / gathering for their primary sustenance. Also, I've butchered all of the above-it's a messy and cross-contaminating process. It doesn't hold a candle to the cleanliness of the modern processing plant.

When was the last time you did a whole bird rinse on your poultry to check for Campylobacter, Salmonella and the like? Have you checked your eggs for Salmonella or done drag swabs of the premise three times during the production life of your birds? Do you know what those rabbits have been eating before you, in turn, eat them? Do you care about production efficiency (pounds of feed: pounds of animal yield)?

I've no affinity or affection for the bronze age of agricultural production practices. Lots of people globally would have to starve to death were we to resume or revert to those practices.

Anyways, I apologize for the rant, but these 'shock videos' that are focused on the uninitiated and underinformed for 'grossout value' chap my hide.

+1.

They are done simply to take advantage of the lack of exposure many people have to the whole issue.

OT is OT but what actually is your idea behind posting this? Does it worry you?

For some reason I can't get MSN videos to show in my browser and it sounds like this is a political hot button issue. Let's not get too worked up, I don't want to have to lock the thread.

I have some rather strong opinions of my own about the topic of modern food production, but I won't air them here.

Oh, I do!

Wait, isn't that 18 - 25 year old chicky babes on the beach?

I am all in favor of that.
