I once had idyllic childhood images of pigs - happy, content and wallowing in a mud pool. When I recently saw what life is really like for pigs on today's farms, I was left feeling physically sick for days. I suppose I knew they lived on concrete

May 5, 2007 ~ Officials Order 20 Million Chickens Held From Market

Officials order 20 million chickens held from market
The Associated Press has reported that on Friday federal officials placed a hold on 20 million chickens raised for market in several states because their feed was mixed with pet food contaminated with melamine.
Three government agencies - the USDA, FDA and EPA - are overseeing a risk assessment to determine whether the chickens would pose a threat to human health if eaten, the AP reports. The assessment may be completed as early as Monday.
The 20 million chickens represent a small fraction of the 9 billion chickens raised each year in the United States.
Information regarding which states have chicken producers affected by the hold is expected to be announced later.

"Men, for years now, have
been talking about war
and peace. But now, no
longer can they just talk
about it. It is no longer
a choice between violence
and nonviolence in this
world; it's nonviolence
or nonexistence."
