I wonder why the FDA doesn't have anything on it, it is your food and
drug administration after all, something seems wrong here..

Give it a week for the FDA to figure out what is going on...

There is nothing wrong. It was found by a USDA inspection by it's Food
Safety and Inspection Service because of 24 illnesses in multiple states
not by the fda.

Yeah, it is kind of basic. USDA controls meat products, FDA controls
dairy and drugs and now tobacco. Hard to believe some of these
otherwise intelligent people haven't figured that one out. Probably
looking at too many of Shelshit's postings, they numb the mind.

The FDA doesn't have anything to do with beef. That would be the USDA.
