Default Be Careful If You Eat Meat
This is really unbelievable. I can't believe some of the stuff going on in the meat industry. Some of these companies don't care if people get really sick. They just want to make as much money as they can.

Remember this scare? http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/12536902/

There are a lot of things in life that your better off not knowing. Where hot dogs and ground beef come from is one of them.

In my teen years, I used to work for a large bakery. It ruined me from eating croutons for a long time....

What is really disturbing is that some of these meat companies don't want the meat to be tested. The article said that when Costco realized that people were getting sick and dying, they started testing the meat. Yet their supplier (Tyson) did not want Costco to test the meat and they no longer supply Costco because of this.

The good news is that it sounds like if people are really careful where they buy their meat, they are probably fairly safe. I certainly wouldn't buy anything from Tyson Foods after reading that article.

Hostess should run commercials suggesting one enjoy a box of Ho-Hos or Twinkies for a 'safe, e-coli free' lunch.

Ground beef is ok if it is ground at your grocer's or nearby. Preformed patties and, obviously, tube meat, should be avoided at all costs.
