The Tyson beef plant that just got shutdown in the Midwest is going to fuck Republicans...

Not because of the 2-3k workers, not because of the increased price consumers pay.

But all the livestock owners who suddenly have nowhere near to slaughter cattle at scale are fucked. Couple that with flooding the market with Argentinian beef, and a lot of Republican voters are going to stay home for midterms.

They might not admit to themselves they want Republicans to lose majorities, and they'll likely spend the next two years bitching about Dems. But a lot of them just won't find the time to vote when they're getting fucked this blatantly

I read an article today that there was tons of tainted beef that China turned down back in the spring. I forget which country has it. There is speculation that the US has bought it after that country called US to make deal. I will see if I can find the article.

Edit here is an article about it.

I'm stocking up on cat food before this shit ends up killing all of our pets.

It's primarily going to be put in animal food and processed foods.

Frozen pizzas. Tv dinners. Canned soups.

Sold to restaurants from their bulk suppliers. Especially fast food places.

Packaged frozen hamburger patties at grocery stores.

Any type of frozen meals with beef.

The big rolls of frozen hamburger.

It's going to be hard to avoid it but not impossible.

Avoid any beef you can't determine where it came from.

If you're not already watching this guy, I recommend you start. He's pretty good. He says there's no way Argentina can produce and export 300k tons of beef in 3 months and it almost certainly comes from Brazil. He also explains why.

And they can't sell American beef to China anymore because well - you know. Before I went to Sam's club in Shanghai it was mainly USDA beef. Now there is no American beef at all. Only Australian. Which I prefer anyway. It's much better quality and less chemicals inside.

BTW China last week rejected a shipment of Argentinan beef because of banned antibiotics so perhaps it will get rerouted to the US. Where the regime clearly does not care about food safety standards anymore.

My friend had a great theory that it's the horses being put to slaughter.

So don't eat beef. Or jalapeños. Or lettuce. Or granola. Or blueberries.

Peak capitalism. Billions of exploited, unidentified animals suffering for profit. Corpse flesh of an unknown species.

How we treat other creatures seems to be a reflection of how we treat one another as a species.

Wild horses slaughtered = mystery beef.

Maybe skip beef for a while unless you know the origin.

WILD HORSES, WILD HORSES COULDNT TAKE ME AWAY...

If it wasn't contaminated horse assholes they would have said it wasn't contaminated horse assholes.

Can't be worse than not eating meat apparently

China wouldn't take this tainted beef so ofc the shithead does. Probably pat himself on the back for thinking about the little guy...

Fucking moron. What's going to be next that we can't eat? Fruit? Potatoes? Bread???

China wouldn't take it so trump bought it up and will sell diseased beef to Americans because he doesn't give a shit if we die as long as he makes money off it.

People coming up with all those crazy theories while the most likely explanation is that that there is no beef. It's not the first time Trump promised something without ever planning on delivering it.

Mystery beef.

Wild horses rounded up and disappeared.

He's just running the old TESCO special, ain't he?

grade F general purpose meat

now with more horse parts

(only used non diseased parts of diseased animals)

Just read "Tender is the Flesh" . If they start advertising it as special meat, know its people

Mad cow disease incoming!

"I'm so mad I'm putting on my fancy cowboy hat for this interview!" - Screwed over American ranchers

He never said it was beef. Just "product for.ground beef" whatever that is... I say neigh, I will pass on Burgers for a bit.

Its coming from the US where they store huge amounts of frozen beef to keep the price high. I know they did that with pork a few years back.

Yeah, if I still lived in the US, I think I'd be ordering the chicken for the time being. Just say "Neigh" to Trump's mystery meat.
