I have not bought anything from Smithfield in years, knowing it was China owned. I purchase all of my meat grass fed/grass finished from a local farmer in Canton, Ohio (free range chickens, turkeys and grass fed and finished beef and hogs). They also have eggs and vegetables. They worked side by side in the processing to be sure they get back the meat brought in and that it is not switched-quality control. We also purchase from an Amish farmer grass fed/finished who has a storefront in Streetsboro, Ohio and processes their own cattle in Orwell, Ohio. Supporting local is best, it helps the little guy and you have better quality. Yes, you pay more, but the taste and quality is better. The beef is more tender, cooks faster, and has a much better flavor. Free range chicken is more tender, not tough like you purchase in the store. The FDA, CDC, NIH all must be disbanded. They never protected the consumer, but are owned financially by big pharma, meat producers, and big business. All the additives, chemical fertilizers, GMO’s and regulations all favor big business, big pharma, and the medical community (doctors and hospitals) for increasing crop yields, and keeping us sick.
