After watching the movie Food Inc and Homo Toxicus, I think if you can raise your own food you will be a lot healthier.

Antibiotics in Beef, Pork, poultry and honey .............yum

I had the opportunity to taste bread made from organic grown wheat. Wow what a huge flavor difference

Good for you! I have laying hens, but no meat birds. Mainly because I'm vegeterian though LOL

What is the movie Homo Toxicus?

Yes, it is wonderful! That is all our family eats.. (except for when we run out of wheat or don't have time.. Which isn't often). It is the best thing since sliced antibiotic bread.
