American food supply less than safe. Time to become an activist.
Saturday, January 9, 2010 at 19:23 I know I’ve been complaining about this for a long time, but how many kids need to be sent to the hospital before we do something?
Take a look at the statistics with European food supplies and ours. Theirs are safer, due to being locally grown by small farmers. We’ve allowed the Bigger Is Better mindset to takeover, thanks to Big Agribusiness and we’re sicker for it. And, it’s costing a fortune in back end care.
When will we get a clue about first, giving the USDA the teeth to do their job? Second, stop subsidizing Big Agribusiness and start buying locally … or at least regionally?
The food supply in our country is completely out of control, and it’s making us sick and fat.
