non-organic meat-some may be injected with gas to preserve its color

[Guest guest]

Found an interesting article on beef. Next time you see beef that is bright

red/off color-- makes you wonder if it has been injected with gas/chemicals. I

also read that on some non-organic farms the cows could be drinking water that

is contaminated right before their slaughtering--Increasing the possibility of

more residues in the meat? It might be difficult to trust some companies and

their procedures?

+++Hi ,

Evidently some stores, like Kroger's in the US, were treating their meat with

dyes and/or carbon dioxide, etc. to make them more red, but they have stopped

that practice. Other stores may not do it, so it is best to check with them.

That link doesn't work, but that's okay since I cannot trust all of their

information. For one, they claim eating meat causes mad cow disease, which is

totally false. Instead, mad cow is caused by a severe mineral imbalance that no

one could possibly catch from eating meat - see:

If cows are drinking that kind of water before slaughter, it wouldn't have had

time to affect their meat and fat in any way.
