As posted above, I most often buy ground bison from a local producer (Grumpy Buffalo Farm). When you buy supermarket ground beef a one pound package of ground beef may be made up from parts of over 100 animals. The more animals into the mix, the greater the chance of bacterial contamination.
If you like your ground beef, don't read the following. If you like to know what is in your ground beef, then read:

When you're out shopping... does it matter where they put the price tag?

I recognize that picture, and it's not ground beef. Believe it or not, they're making MacDonalds Chicken Mcnuggets, and that's what the 'meat' looks like before it's bleached.
If you enter "chicken mcnuggets" in Google image search, that's the first ten or so pictures you'll see.

If you’ve enjoyed a burger at a restaurant, eaten burgers at a friend’s BBQ, or bought lean ground beef at a grocery store or supermarket chain, chances are good that you’ve eaten pink slime meat.
The USDA believes that pink slime ground beef is safe; in fact pink slime has been used in school lunches for years.
Processed scraps of beef trimmings and fat, treated with ammonia..that’s what pink slime is, in a nutshell. It doesn’t sound appetizing, but then again, neither does most of what goes on behind-the-scenes in bringing meat to the table, including the use of synthetic hormones and antibiotics in cattle and livestock.

Uploaded on Jan 31, 2012 McDonald's will stop using 'pink slime' (aka, ammonium hydroxide) in it's beef after a campaign against it by celebrity chef Jamie Oliver raised public awareness and grossed people out.

All the local supermarkets attempt to purchase some portion of their produce and vegetables from local sources. Shop-Rite lists list the local farms including Shaul's from which it purchases produce and vegetables.
Did you EVER know a guy that is so confused that he can't remember what he did or said yesterday?
I have no intentions of ever purchasing the "frankenfruit" that Price Chopper, Hannaford or any of the big chain supermarkets sell .... I will continue to purchase from the local farmers/producers IN SEASON and from small markets like Gabriel's and Greulich's
My family and I prefer shopping at Gabriel's, Greulich's, the CO-OP and direct from certain farms. The ONLY chain supermarket that my family and I shop at is Shop-Rite -- but that is only for a few items.
Hey bud, just FYI - Shoprite AND Hannaford AND Price Chopper ALL get their in season produce from Shauls!!!! Most people do not have the luxury of living off the lavish taxpayer-funded pensions pensions of their "family" as you do. We actually have to go to work every day to earn an income (out of which we have to pay taxes to every level of government for such nonsense as a gold ceiling at Proctors that is causing a DRASTIC reduction of the tax base including at the county level). We don't get to get to spend our time playing on the computer, especially in the middle of the night like some people do. We actually have a family (i.e. spouse and children) to support, and we have a mortgage to pay, NiMo bills to pay, property taxes, school taxes, fed income tax, state income tax, SS tax, medicare tax, and we have to largely fund our own retirements, and pay our own health insurance plus copays, and our own car insurance, homeowners insurance, etc. And pay for maintenance and repairs on our houses that we pay for. And many others struggle to pay rents and feed their children. Most people do NOT have the luxury of being able to pay high prices at local stores, (nor even driving all over the place, i.e., one sale item at one store, another sake item at another store, etc. etc. and paying for the gas not to mention the travel time) as the vast majority of people are not living off mommies.
Only buys local and only in season. Must mean no vegetables any other time of the year. It shows too. rounder and rounder.
Oh I can see the response now. He, no, "his family" has this gigunda freezer on mommies' land that they buy out all the local produce in season and have a year's supply frozen. And of course that means two mommies have a huge warehouse too for canning.
Did you ever see so much "me and my familyi....." Guess "family" cannot speak for themselves.
Optimists close their eyes and pretend problems are non existent. Better to have open eyes, see the truths, acknowledge the negatives, and speak up for the people rather than the politicos and their rich cronies.
