[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 434"] I was going to stay out of this thread, but obviously there are some who need to hear this. This, and other "alternative" feeding methods, are why I started raising my own beef, and why I will NOT under ANY circumstances eat commercially produced beef. This is also why so many people have become vegetarians -- it's not that they don't want to consume meat, it's because they don't want to consume filth, even if it is indirectly. The consumer has the right to know that the animals that they are eating are fed good, wholesome, CLEAN food -- and no paper from some university telling how to feed chicken manure safely, is going to convince me (or many other consumers) that we want to eat this crap.
