Great video.

Ammoniated beef has taken a real beating in the media over the past couple years, and now fast-food giants McDonald's, Taco Bell and Burger King are no longer using it.

How do we really know that?

the product is widely used in the National School Lunch Program.

Someone in the beef industry is making huge profits by feeding our children dog scraps.

You know there is a very simple device called a parasite zapper that could be used on meats but i guess if the parasites were killed it might hurt the weight of the meat. To me it seems if there is no possibility of death the fda and the usda will not approve of it.

I quit eating meat a long time ago because I could actually taste all the chemicals used to process it. I think meat and dairy products are causing many health problems and artificial sweeteners and gmo corn syrup are causing the rest.
