We are soooooo sick of
recalls  Saturday, September 29th,
2007
I could not be sicker of recalls. The
only recalls I want to hear about any more are the few people that I'd
really like God to recall. Okay, so 21.7 million pounds of meat
(ground beef products) has been recalled by Topps Meat Co. in the
U.S...blah, blah, blah, fear-monger, fear-monger, fear-monger.
EVERYBODY PANIC. It is one of the largest meat recalls in U.S.
history, says CNN. The U.S. Department of Agriculture gives the
purpose as 25 illnesses are "under investigation" in Connecticut,
Florida, Indiana, Maine, New Jersey, New York, Ohio and
Pennsylvania. Nothing concrete, as usual.
In a statement, Topps VP of Operations,
Geoffrey Livermore, said this is the company's first recall in its 65
years of business. I didn't know Topps was even still around -
they packed their bags and moved out of Ohio when Giant Eagle started
giving Fuel Perks discounts at the gas pump. Speaking of Giant
Eagle, I went there today to fill a prescription, and you know what they
had on the Pharmacy drive through window? A giant halloween
window sticker. Of the grim reaper. Isn't that a little odd
to be putting on the window of a pharmacy?
So, yeah, if you're the paranoid type, and
you buy into this crap, here's the info on the
E.coli "scare." You can return your meat to Topps for a full
refund. Or you could give it to the homeless, because they sort of
know to be thankful for any food at all.
