The Power and Politics Behind What We Eat!
July 3, 2008 by Gailstrail · 1 Comment
The more I read about pet food; the more I learn about human food and how the two are connected; which in turn brings me to the power and politics behind what we eat! Does this sound a little far fetched?
I so wish I could make this story more apealing…everyone needs to know what goes on with our sustainance. Think of it as ‘life and death’!
Ever wonder where dead animals go? Probably not. If you are brave enough, doubtful that you are; we tend to bury our heads when it comes to the “unpleasant facts of life” .
Help Wanted: person to operate bobcat mini-dozers, loading ‘raw material’ (dead animals) into a 10-foot-deep stainless-steel pit; operate giant auger-grinder.
Are you looking for work? Does this sound like your kind of job? Imagine at the bottom of this pit, a giant auger-grinder begins to turn and you hear popping bones and squeezing flesh; a grusome nightmare! Who does this kind of job? I’ve been trying to find out the job title for the person who does this job, with no success as yet. In one rencent article I read that these jobs are held by: Bandanna-masked men; undocumented workers from Mexico; doing a dirty job that no one else wants to do. Wonder what kind of pay they receive?
