It is a sandwich where you have two slices of bread WISH you had some meat....
"FDA urges limited use of antibiotics in meat" by Associated Press | June 29, 2010
WASHINGTON — The Food and Drug Administration, responding to public health concerns, is urging meat producers to limit the amount of antibiotics they give animals.
The FDA said antibiotics in meat pose a “serious public health threat’’ because the drugs create antibiotic-resistant bacteria that can infect humans who eat it....
Maybe you should pass on the meat anyway.
The agency said misuse and overuse of the drugs has led to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Antibiotics have been given to animals to kill pathogens for more than 50 years, and the FDA acknowledged that the practice has had “tremendous benefits’’ to animal and human health.
Then why the warning? Does anyone even trust the FDA anymore?
Of greater concern, the agency said, is when producers use antibiotics on healthy animals to speed growth and reduce feed costs. The agency is also concerned about antibiotics that are given continuously through feed or water to entire herds or flocks of animals....
That doesn't sound good for anyone except $omeone'$ bottom line.
If I were to truly have a wish sandwich there would be no more wars.
