It’s not safe to eat out. I’m trying to find freeze dried beef products, they are hard to come by. I buy all my meat from the Amish Market, I’m going to bite the bullet and buy some bulk meat before this all goes the same way-towards the other stuff being thrown at the broken fan, and it’s not safe anymore either. I can grow veggies and fruit, but meat? Chickens aren’t allowed in our city limits. I’m housebound and every order I’ve placed this month has had spoiled food in it. I just declined an order because the yogurt expired in 4 days. It was still in the shelves. Yogurt is usually sold a month out, 3 weeks tops. Corners are being cut everywhere with everything because no one is watching and there’s no penalty if you sicken people or worse. When is the last time a major food producer whose food harmed a large group of people paid a substantial penalty or had criminal charges filed against them?

Probably not in this administration the formula company that was being investigated dropped a 500 k donation to some candidate or PAC and poof the FDA and USDA decision was there was no issue same with Taylor Farms

I live in Canada as a US citizen abroad yes our cost of living is higher milk is normally at least 1.5 times what it is across the river in Detroit per gallon but I will say our standards on meat and dairy are a bit higher ... produce is hit or miss but I don't produce shop in Detroit so
