USDA officials have recalled 143 million pounds of beef, enough meat to feed two hamburgers to every man woman and child in the United States, as reported by the Associated Press. A video broadcast across the nation showed sickening and cruel abuse of ill, dying, or crippled cattle at a slaughterhouse associated with the recall.

Whether you are a vegetarian, a vegan, or you eat meat regularly, we all rely on the USDA to keep our food safe to eat. Recent reports have surfaced indicating that they haven’t been doing their job as effectively as we might have hoped.
