I could no longer trust the product to be either safe or humane. I'm not really a vegetarian, but I have vastly reduced the amount of meat I consume. It was as much about not supporting the trade with my money as anything else.Geekwadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09638962621983050743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6562862281095647631.post-1308657050308991512008-08-27T10:38:00.000-04:002008-08-27T10:38:00.000-04:00If this doesn't hit front page news, what will.Wha...If this doesn't hit front page news, what will.<BR/><BR/>What does it take for the media to stop coddling Mr. Harper?<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/><BR/>CoffeeWalks With Coffeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04019579871194377605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6562862281095647631.post-81299489662117240632008-08-27T10:10:00.000-04:002008-08-27T10:10:00.000-04:00I too was surprised by the number of brands owned ...I too was surprised by the number of brands owned by Maple Leaf Foods. It reminds me of the pet food contamination crisis in that all these different brands/labels were actually packaging food from the same plant. Seems like free market economics results in less competitors but larger corporations who create their own competitive brands.Beijing Yorkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05579118045254845839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6562862281095647631.post-75697635746234253982008-08-27T09:12:00.000-04:002008-08-27T09:12:00.000-04:00What really bugged my about the Maple Leaf listeri...What really bugged my about the Maple Leaf listeria contamination issue was all the other brand names that were listed as being possibly contaminated. When I heard names like Schneiders, Shopsy's and Hickory Farms, I suddenly realize that I don't know which meat products to buy. I guess I'll go veggie until the carrots start mixing with the cream corn on my plate.<BR/><BR/>Pardon the pun. With meats, I'm not into cross-contamination.Skinny Dipperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12818163310102120130noreply@blogger.com
