Declare independence from meat

Declare independence from meat
What ever happened to the good old days, when the Fourth of July was
just Independence Day and the worst things we had to fear were traffic
jams and wayward fireworks? Recent findings by the U.S. Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention suggest that food poisoning from
inadequately grilled hamburgers and hot dogs should now top this list.

Deadly pathogens in meat products have been sickening millions of
consumers annually and killing 9,000. The key offenders are E. coli,
salmonella and listeria. The U.S. Department of Agriculture is
shifting its meat and poultry hot line into high gear to help
consumers survive the Fourth of July grilling ritual.

Fortunately, American manufacturers have developed a great variety of
veggie burgers and soy dogs that are healthful, delicious, convenient
and available in every supermarket. And they don't harbor nasty
pathogens.

On this Fourth of July, let's declare our independence from the meat
industry. Let's explore the many benefits of meat substitutes, grains,
vegetables, and fruits in our diet.

Hey, that's a good idea Amy.

Promote veg/veganism as not only an ethical and a cruelty free diet, but
also a SAFER way of eating.

BTW, everything David Harrison said about the troll, Jonathan Ball was true.
He will change with your postings, verbally abuse you and try to chase you
from the Newsgroup ASAP.

There is only one thing ~~jonnie~~ dislikes more than a new poster to the
group, that's a new 'female' poster.

He's a 'bit of a larf' really but some people take him seriously - a great
mistake.

He's off the group at the moment, which means he is on holiday, or in
jail.again:-)

Watch him!

Enjoy your holiday.
