Whoops

Hallmark/Westland Meat Packing Co issued a recall of 143 MILLION pounds of meat, mostly beef, because their employees forced unfit cattle into the slaughter house. Specifically, they used electric prods to force cattle that couldn't stand into the slaughter house.

And since Hallmark/Westland had to recall 143 million pounds of meat, they are now bankrupt and are going to close permanently. Apparently Adam Smith's hand spares no one!

Can we please stop eating beef? Can we just not eat cows? You can still have fish and chicken. Isn't that enough? Do we really have to torture these animals? Plus, beef ISN'T SAFE. From mad cow to prodding unfit cows, you carnivores are going to die from a hamburger. Just cows. Can't we start somewhere?

Plus, cows emit 5.5 million metric tons of methane every year, in the US alone. (Insert HRC joke here). Methane, the stuff that's warming the planet, making Al Gore and Bono seem reasonable and the stuff that may eventually kill us.

C'mon people. No more cows, please. Vegetables are delicious, and we still get to keep all our alcohol. And isn't that what's important?
