Dumbest Things People Have Said About Your Chickens/Eggs/Meat

I didn't take offense. Your doctor might take issue with you saying that that particular chemical isn't bad though.

Depends on your diet. I eat very little processed food, so if I would stop adding salt I wouldn't get enough. I also hydrate quite actively, so not all of the salt is absorbed. While many people benefit from cutting down on their use of salt, it's not good for everyone. I prefer to listen to doctors when they say a glass or two of wine a day is good for you

Personally, I try to use as much of the animal as I can. When processing chicken,I use the feathers, feet, liver, heart, and gizzard. The other bits go into the composter, or else used as fish bait.
As for pig, I try to use everything but the squeal.
same with cows.
This is my own opinion, so please don't take offense, but I believe when one takes the life of an animal, one should not waste anything.

I was told by my sons girl friend that she thinks its mean that we are planning to eat the roos we have and that she wouldnt eat any cause they probably have diseases……She said she would rather eat McDonalds!!! OH if she only knew where that meat came from and what was really in it!!!

This is another thing i hear somewhat often. Maybe she thinks food spontaneously regenerates in mcdonalds and grocery stores.

This is going a bit from the point but I hate when people use chemicals as a negative word. The fact is is that everything is chemicals, your own body is chemicals the air you breath in is chemicals and the eggs and meat from home raised chickens are full of chemicals as well. Some might say this "rant" is useless in the run of things but it is very important that everyone knows that chemicals are the basis of everything not just some nasty thing that company's put in out food or other products. Try using additives instead of chemicals.

But of course you know perfectly well what people mean when they complain about chemicals used in the food industry ... it's what everyone means when they use that word in this type of conversation except people who are trying to derail the dialog ... context is important.

Most of the hate on salt is nothing more than marketing. It's gotten so out of hand there is now some effort to set the record straight that salt is necessary.

Yep, NaCl is a component in those electrolytes that Gatorade and Powerade advertise about. Without it, you would die. But it's just like anything too much can kill too. Think about the trace minerals in your body. Gotta have them for proper cell function, but will too much of them, metal toxicity issues.
