We screw up our food
So I was thinking this while I was eating dinner ( I had chicken, white rice, greens, ( thats not my point by the way)). Even healthy food that we eat, humans have messed plants. When we actually think about it we're eating some of the poison. Farmers spay the poison on the plants sooner or later the plants get watered and some of that poison gets in the water from being sprayed on top of the leaf then that water eventually falling and settles in the soil and the plants take in that water. That water is now in that plant then as time passed and probably the same routine repeats we take the plant and eat it. Thus essentially not only are we eating the plant but also some of the insecticide (poison) sprayed on it. Another example is the meat we eat. Such as beef which comes from cows, chicken, pork which comes from pigs. I'll mainly focus on cows. Theses day massive amount of cow are being kept in small areas bunched up together. The over crowding cause massive amounts of problems such as disease spreads more easily. Think of it as if you had cold during the dead of winter. Most people normally stay inside because its cold if you having the cold were to stay inside with them being so close together eventually someone will catch your cold so on and so on thus almost everybody getting the cold. Same thing happens when their is a sick or diseased cow around a massive number of other cows close together. To try to keep the cows healthy in their feed ( food they feed the cows ) the have added alot of antibiotics ( don't even get me started on what that has done to us although I may decide to write that later ). Also we've especially made the cows feed so that they become fatter quicker to keep up with todays meat demand. What people don't know is that this isn't lean healthy meat is mostly fatty and non-nutritious stuff. Nor is it nearly as healthy as what we should really be feeding cows ( which is grass which contains natural vitamins and minerals). To add on we add preservatives and wrongly abuse these animals that we use for meat. I would write more but I'm tired. I hope everyone COMMENTS on this wether its thoughts, questions, comments, agreements, disagreements, clarification, etc. I'll try to respond to them all!!! sweatdrop whee
