The Star Ledger. Not 'where's the beef,' but what's in the beef Monday, March 20, 2006 BY ALEXANDER LANEStar-Ledger Staff http://www.nj.com/news/ledger/index.ssf?/base/news-5/1142836555123280.xml & coll=1 Chicken manure, scraps from restaurant plates, melted animal fat, bovine blood products -- it's what's for dinner. All are approved ingredients for cattle feed. Antibiotics and hormones also are standard fare on the feedlots that dominate this country's $90 billion beef industry.

This is a classic case of throwing the baby out with the bath water.

 

The grain based diet, which is the cornerstone of the vegetarian

approach, has just as many carcinogens in it and is just as toxic as

the rest of the food supply. And the gluten encasing the grain opens

up a can of health worms far more serious.

 

Humans have never been vegetarian in the last million plus years,

making it one of the most unnatural diets out there.

It's a highly simplistic, totally incorrect response to an

environmental problem.
