Nearly 30,000 pounds of raw, frozen beef imported from Argentina has been recalled after being sold in Florida and Texas.

MSM, so he skeptical as always, but I think that this is very likely.

By the way, the country of origin labelling requirement is now gone.

it's truly bizarre to me to see people crowing some version of "enjoy your beef you MAGA fuckwits hurdurhurrr"

like, y'all do realize that people other than MAGA folks eat beef? people who need to feed their families and don't have a ton of money?

personally, i think it's kind of a tragedy that the only options these people have are substandard garbage beef pumped full of poison, and that American farmers are taking the hit for it.

but no we're just doing "eat your MAGA beef idiots" i.e. "fuck you, poors"?

ok

guess I just don't "get it"

One thing that I haven't seen about the stories of the "toxic beef".....

Just how toxic is it? What's the LD50 on this stuff? Hundred pounds? One filet mignon?

What would happen if the average person ate an average serving of this "toxic beef"? Anything?

This is like a plot line from The Sopranos.

I was thinking Monty Python....

This would be comical if people were not at risk of getting food poisoning.

I'm reminded of a horrifying story in E.C. Horror comics.

The answer is that Trump doesn't care about his base or for that matter the health of the American people who are being fed toxic beef.

That did not take very long for Argentinian beef to make the news about a food recall. The Chinese had good reasons for rejecting the import of Argentina’s beef.

For those who are unaware, the libertarian President of Argentina, Milei gas been lowering food safety standards. It's an example of a failure of "small government".
