Yes it is true! For all you carnivores who have grown accustomed to that toothsome delight, our government has now put an end to trade in disabled livestock:



Associated Press
Originally published October 14, 2001

WASHINGTON - Injured cattle are being spared a trip to the slaughterhouse. McDonald's and other hamburger chains will no longer buy beef from cattle that are unable to walk. Neither will the government, which supplies meat to schools.

Check out the last line in the article. It sounds like an issue needing some sort of nationwide contest.


On the same subject, there doesn’t seem to be any scarcity of getting “something extra” in your Extra Value Meal. Check out how locations in your home state are doing here:

How would I know if I was eating disabled livestock?

Does it come with a crutch?

Femme ...Yes, a Hopping chicken....

Never liked much meat before...like it even less now...That is the best diet on earth: lose the desire for food...

Reminds me of the movie "THINNER"....actually, he ate and ate and ate and lost and lost and lost, due to the Indian's curse...ooooh!
