Does anyone in the US care about antibiotic abuse in the meat industry, or is that just a European thing?

Does anyone in the US care about antibiotic abuse in the meat industry, or is that just a European thing?

I was reminded of this issue in the kobe beef thread when someone said they trust American meat more than Chinese meat.

Fuck this fucking stupid pansy feel-good "no antibiotics" shit. They give antibiotics to aniamsl because the animals are SICK. It makes them HEAL and makes them BETTER. I'd rather eat meat from a healthy animal than a sick animal. Stick that up your ass, along with your fucking "gluten" bullshit.

>They give antibiotics to aniamsl because the animals are SICK
That's not what it means when people talk about the antibiotic issue, are you really this ignorant?

Nope, I'm just sick of food fads used to drive up food prices for imaginary reasons. Scare the customers into paying more for so-called "healthy" food. skeptoid.com/episodes/4517

You are really, really dumb
The whole problem is that they are giving these drugs to animals that are NOT sick

It's 100x worse than doctors giving out antibiotics for the common cold because there isn't even any illness present. It's literally just to make milk cheaper, and there are no new antibiotics under development because it isn't lucrative enough

I understand what you are getting at, but antibiotic abuse can be pretty fucking dangerous if not controlled.

What he's getting at is that because one person once bought gluten-free water, it means that health is a hippie delusion and we should just all just drink anthrax and polonium because organic just contains carbon and water is a chemical

It's ridiculous the kind of retarded shit people spout because of infotainment shows like penn&teller that youngsters mistook for actual education

You're a fucking retard. Its not about 'fad' foods at all. Its about the dangers of rampant antibiotic usage.

Im sure you're aware that bacteria are now becoming immune to even the strongest antibiotics now, right?
Im sure you're aware that antibiotic resistance is considered by most medical researchers as the most dangerous event in recent times, right?

Look foward to dying from a papercut infection, retard.

Yep, Food Babe and March Against Monsanto and PETA are *so* much better sources of information.

If you let science do it's job instead of opposing it all the time, you could be more like me and not worry
