That's right. Godzilla reborn in fast food.
In this disgusting excuse for food, the meat grinder that is Burger King packs two cow patties, a chicken patty, 3 strips of pig and 2 slices of orange... something. Apparently the Japanese have decided that eating healthy is just stupid. I almost feel sorry for the wee bit of veggies trapped between dead flesh and some sort of pus filled cream sauce.
What the fuck is a "patty' anyway?
But it seems the Japanese, and everyone else who eats meat, are getting more than they bargained for. A study done by the Translational Genomics Research Institute found a drug resistant form of bacteria called Staphylococcus aureus in, get this, one quarter of US supermarkets. 1 in 4!
According to the study:
Staphylococcus aureus, a bacteria that can cause skin infections, pneumonia, sepsis or endocarditis in people with weak hearts, was found in 47 percent of samples, said the study in the journal Clinical Infectious Diseases.
"For the first time, we know how much of our meat and poultry is contaminated with antibiotic-resistant Staph, and it is substantial," said Lance Price of the Translational Genomics Research Institute in Phoenix, Arizona, and senior author of the study.
"Antibiotics are the most important drugs that we have to treat Staph infections; but when Staph are resistant to three, four, five or even nine different antibiotics -- like we saw in this study -- that leaves physicians few options," Price said.There's no reason to believe that Japan's or Canada's or anyone's meat is really any safer than the US's. Huge meat processing facilities mix dead animals from many locations into the 'patties' or 'strips' or 'fingers', with little or no oversight, that then get shipped all over the place. It's a gigantic killing factory that breeds deadly germs we have no defenses for. Clog your arteries and as a bonus, pneumonia!
Factory farming at it's finest!
