Tyson Chicken Loaded with Antibiotics and Corruption
Filed under Chicken | Comments (10)
Tyson Foods claims that their chickens are raised without antibiotics. The truth is that the eggs are pumped full of an antibiotic called gentamicin and the chicks are fed antibiotic-laced feed.
Yet Tyson Foods wants to be able to keep a label on their chickens that reads "raised without antibiotics." The USDA has informed them that they can't use this label considering the little fact that it's a lie. Now Tyson Foods is suing to be able to keep the misleading label.
If Tyson is so eager to mislead the public over this issue, it makes one wonder what other deceptive practices they follow. Here's one: Tyson injects its packaged chicken full of water and salt to increase the weight while still labeling it "100% All Natural." A class action lawsuit was filed against them over this in 2001.
I don't eat chicken, but if I did I would avoid Tyson's product.
Meanwhile, the company is planning to spread its meat across the globe:
As Tyson Foods Inc. replicates its uniquely American model of corporate meat production throughout the developing world, the company could fundamentally transform rural economies in nations such as India, Brazil and China.
In the article, Don Tyson said, "We have done about as much in the United States as we can do."
Doing all they can do to lie to consumers and sell mislabeled, antibiotic-laced chickens injected with salt water? Mr. Tyson, I think you can "do" better.
I know that Tyson claimed/claims their chickens aren't raised with antibiotics, and use it as positive advertising. What could the negatives be of eating chicken that IS raised with antibiotics

Tyson also treats their animals with amazing cruelty. Please do not purchase from them.

I had no idea about any of this. I am surprised. I thought it was going to be a great recipe. Boy oh boy was I wrong
I break out in hives when I eat chicken raised on antibiotics. Only the dark meat effects me. I assume extra antibiotics are stored in the fat. There is no problem with organic free range chickens.

This is a great reason why the Master Cleanse (also known as the Lemonade Diet), is so important for those of us who live and eat modern diets. The cleanse helps the body to effectively and very quickly eliminate the toxins we have stored in our bodies over many years, often decades. Our liver can only handle so much; we need to give our bodies a break every now and then and detox the right way. There's so much great, free information on www.therawfoodsite.com if anyone is interested.
This is horrible, and the reason why I choose to eat organic. And LD, I agree. The Master Cleanse is an excellent way to detox the body from the harsh chemicals and antibiotics that are food is now laced with. Thanks for helping to spread the truth and support public awareness.
Check your facts, gentamicin is an antibiotic,not a hormone.
