    This is bad advice, fellow Americans.

    Look up where the recalls and violations have happened. Also, look up the cuts of meat.

    Big numbers don’t mean all of America. What a stupid suggestion.

    I get my meat the way god intended, from the side of the interstate. Chicken of the pavement. Highway hamburger. Fauna ala Ford. Jeep jerky. The other black meat.

    Stop buying meat at all. Let the industry collapse. It’s probably the only way the US meat industry will adopt better standards

      Oh, they know. Which is exactly why they want to get rid of the rules that “prevent” (really just put in the absolute bare minimum of standards) companies from actively harming their customers and employees (too badly) to make a quick buck.

    Officially inspected meat from the US is not good enough for export into the EU. How much worse could uninspected meat be?

      We had some scares in the past. We learned from our mistakes. The EU actually does a lot of shit right.

      This recall list is for things the grocery store or restaurants see, not consumer sized cuts. When was the last time you bought 30lbs of menudo mix?

        individual consumer packages may not bear this labeling, as retail stores may have applied their own stickers with pricing and safe handling instructions

        The recalled meat could still have ended up in packages for consumers. What they’re saying is that you can’t know since retail stores would have cut up this meat and repackaged it.

      Thing is, many of these things grow over time, and - especially with the active gutting of regulatory and oversight bodies - there’s a decent chance that the list isn’t comprehensive.

      It’s also one of the reasons why I have avoided US meat products and grabbed stuff with a maple leaf instead, because it wasn’t hard to see this coming (and coming and coming)
