15 March 2018 - Where's the Beef?

How to Be a Smart Meat Shopper

"Meat costs put a big dent in our budgets nowadays. So you ought to buy all meats and poultry carefully and take care of them properly until you are ready to cook them."

A couple of years ago (or maybe more), some friends and I went all in and bought a cow.

We found a farm, picked out a cow, and paid for the meat and processing.

It is still the best beef cuts I have ever had and our deep freezer stayed full for about a year.

When all that beautiful beef was gone, we had to go back to buying cuts from the store. I don't know why chain grocery store beef cuts are so gross.

BUT

Then I found out about PINK SLIME!

If you read the WIKI link, you will see that in 2012, a study found that 70% of ground beef as the additive. It is disgusting.

BUT

It's not just ground beef or processed food. It can be used in steaks and no one knows the difference.

I'm talking about transglutaminase or "Meat Glue".

This stuff binds protein together. So you can take cuts of meat and bind them to look like steaks.

...

Let's just say I am not a fan.

I don't like additives.

I have had unfortunate health issues for the last couple of years and I definitely try to eat simple foods. Really the simpler the food the better for your body.

...

Let's do a call back!

Check out what the USDA is trying to do

If reforms and regulations are cut back then we can see a lot more slime and glue in our foods.

So please please check out this link and read up on how your voice can change this.

Stuffed Lamb Cushion for Easter "Lamb is a traditional food for Eater. The lamb is a symbol of Jesus. In John 1:29 Jesus is referred to as "The Lamb of God", who takes away the sin of the world." Lamb is also a traditional Passover meal. In the book of Exodus, God was determined to save His people from their captivity in Egypt. The last plague He sent to Egypt was the death of the firstborn. God commanded that His people take an unblemished lamb, kill it, and but the blood of the lamb on their door post. This would be a sign for the Angel of Death to "passover" the house and not strike their firstborn. It would be after their freedom from slavery that God would institute traditional sacrifice for sins that would involve a lamb. Jesus' last supper was the Passover meal. He and His disciples ate lamb before He instituted the new covenant, teaching His disciples to remember Him in communion. Jesus would go on to be betraye

"Is There a Doctor in the House?" "Medical emergencies may occur at ay time, especially with young children. Prepare ahead of time by knowing exactly what you will do if it becomes necessary to get medical assistance quickly." Let's just sum up this blog post. AMERICAN HEALTHCARE SUCKS I hate doctors and their offices and their bills. This broken system we have is why "natural" remedies are becoming popular. We choose something other than a professional to treat us because our insurance won't cover services or the doctor might just misdiagnose us and throw meds at us. I'm sure this isn't everyone's experience. It has been mine for years. I had a good doctor once. If you want good medical services it will cost you. Remember when you could just go to a doctor? Now you have to make an appointment months in advance. If you need same day service, go to Urgent Care. If you are experiencing an
