Good News from the Farm

Yes, it is time for some good news from our farmers. In Idaho, farmers have deiced that giving their produce away is better than letting it rot on the vine which they were doing last month. I don’t know when they had that idea. I am just glad they finally did. I will leave that link below. Why don’t more farmers do this? They are probably being paid to dump or till it over. 

More good news, Tyson this week spent about 40 dollars in plastic to create barriers between workers. Along with the conveyer belt, the birds ride which is wide open space. Let the germs fly. Hey, they believe they can fly. I am not going to step on the dreams of germs. Harry Vox had an article that in retrospect makes sense. The meat we eat which has been harvested, better than other words I could use, could be contaminated. Holy Cow. Or a pig. The bottom line is that we these animals are processed they are processed by people who may have COVID-19. Again it’s time to go back to the family own farms. 

USDA wants to help poor family farmers! If they had wanted they wouldn’t have created factory farms. Enough. Like George Carlin said, “Nobody does Bullshit like America.”

Hello y'all! I have hit a point in my life that I miss the simple dishes and times that my parents grew up in. People were kind to each other and the food was homemade from scratch. Before convince food was everywhere. Oh, those were the days... Let's reclaim them and start cooking from scratch again.
