5 years ago, Trump privitized pork inspection. This is the result of letting the industry regulate itself.
I remember reading about that, that was when I stopped eating pork
Miserable senseless way to die too. Just vomit and shit and sweat yourself to death because some fucko told their employees to cut a corner somewhere down the supply chain
The thing that's surprising but also unsurprising is that Boars Head is supposed to be the expensive good stuff. Apparently even that doesn't mean anything anymore. It probably never did.
It probably never did.
Boar's Head - premium heavy meat buildup™

"Small flying gnat like insects were observed crawling on the walls and flying around the room. The rooms walls had heavy meat buildup," they wrote.
Better cuts of meat and better seasoning doesn’t necessarily equate to safer food processing.
From what I've gathered it is your higher quality deli slices. I dunno what's now safer or better, probably nothing like you said.
Hahahha, the markdown treated "1906" as a list numbering, so it pops left. I wonder if there's anything neat I can do with that.

hey i think your card expired over 40 years ago....may be time to get a new one
"1906." is fine on my screen. But your number "8675309." pops left for me.
Another day, another reason I'm thankful I don't eat meat anymore
You can also get listeriosis from fruits, vegetables, and raw nuts. It's not a disease that's exclusive to meat or animal products. Some of the biggest listeria outbreaks have been from eating melons, in particular cantaloupes, containing listeria bacteria. Improperly frozen vegetable packs can also contain listeria. The largest listeria outbreak in history was from processed meat in South Africa, I think nearly 100 people died. Improperly made nut milks can also contain listeria bacteria and have lead to multiple deaths in Canada.
It's important to wash your fruits and vegetables, especially if you're planning on eating them raw as listeria bacteria can multiply at refrigeration temperatures. However that means you have to be careful with nut milks and animal milks.
Remind me to never eat their lunch meat ever again.
I expect the only changes will be companies hiring wetworks guys like Boeing to punish whistleblowing
i work in a deli and business has dropped off significantly ever since this started. as far as we've been told, the plant where the outbreak occurred has been shut down and anything being sold was produced in other plants so it's (as of right now) safe to eat. doesn't stop some people from ordering fifty pounds of fucking ham every day though. we'll see what happens now
Might have to speed up my slow transition away from meat and animal products. Geez
Every day I feel like there is something that makes me regret still eating meat… I need to do better.
Now that consumers are aware of the problem they will stop buying boars head
listeria
Is that named for Lister, doctor who once achieved unheard before and after 300% mortality rate during surgery?
Haha. I had to google more than I wanted to.
The 300% guy is Robert Liston.
Listeria is named after Joseph Lister.
Etymology: 1940s modern Latin, named after Joseph Lister (see Lister, Joseph).
[...]
Lister, Joseph
1st Baron (1827–1912), English surgeon, inventor of antiseptic techniques in surgery. He realized the significance of Louis Pasteur's germ theory in connection with sepsis and in 1865 he used carbolic acid dressings on patients who had undergone surgery.
Haha this guy would save everyone in that 300% surgery.
Wikipedia editors must have gotten really pissed off that the 300% stuff is apocryphal. They only mention it at the very, very bottom of his page.
Liston's most famous case
Although Richard Gordon's 1983 book pays tribute to other aspects of Liston's character and legacy as noted elsewhere in this article, it is his description of some of Liston's most famous cases which has primarily made its way into what is known of Liston in popular culture. Gordon describes what he calls Liston's most famous case in his book, as quoted verbatim below.
Amputated the leg in under 21⁄2 minutes (the patient died afterwards in the ward from hospital gangrene; they usually did in those pre-Listerian days). He amputated in addition the fingers of his young assistant (who died afterwards in the ward from hospital gangrene). He also slashed through the coat tails of a distinguished surgical spectator, who was so terrified that the knife had pierced his vitals he fainted from fright (and was later discovered to have died from shock).
— Richard Gordon
This episode has since been dubbed as the only known surgery in history with a 300 percent mortality rate. The situation that Gordon labels "Liston's most famous case" has been described as apocryphal. No primary sources confirm that this surgery ever took place.
I think some Wikipedia editors must hate Reddit more than Hexbear does.
