Red Roof Meat Company Newletter: Growth Hormones Plus - April 17, 2023

FARM NEWSLETTER – 17 APR 2023 ~ GROWTH HORMONES PLUS

Have any of you noticed that Land of Lakes milk cartons no longer say "Made from cows that have not been treated with the artificial growth hormones rBGH/rBST".  Of course, the obligatory FDA statement stating something like, “Don’t worry, the government has found the genetically engineered hormone to be perfectly safe,” is missing as well.  (Doesn’t that statement make you think that something sneaky is going on?) Anyway, you know what I think? Yep, the bastards quietly added this GE material back into production.

Good time to sneak this stuff in as consumers are wrapped up with other news, like wars, nukes, crime waves, bank runs, and 18,000 dead milk cows. Pretty hard to focus on mundane stuff like poison in our food supply.

So, today I read an article regarding lab-grown chicken meat that has met FDA approval (no way, right?). Yes, it appears to be true.  As if chicken nuggets aren’t weird enough.

And now mRNA vaccines are to be injected into beef and pork – if this practice isn’t already underway. Hmmm, my takeaway from the last three years was to stay away from mRNA.  But then, we Luddites tend to see technology through dark sunglasses.

One last thought... If you lack trust in the FDA – and who doesn’t – and you would like your dinner table to be free of these experimental meats, there is one way to go. Buy locally, and know your farmer.  Simple as that. 

Regards,

Steve
