Food and Travel Nation Highlight - 091821 - The BIG LIE from the USDA about "American" Beef.

<p>White House documents show that 82% of the beef product in the US is produced by only FOUR companies.  With that much power in the hands of only four companies, they easily control the both wholesale and retail prices of beef.  But there's a BIG secret you should know.  When you purchase beef products in the store, that beef , even though it has a USDA label on it. may not be American beef.  Turns out, those four powerful companies used their lobbying power ($$$$) to exempt themselves from "Country of Origin" labeling requirements.  So while American ranchers are being forced out of business, these four companies are purchasing beef from oversees, it gets USDA stamps on the package, and you, as the consumer have no idea when those animals lived, what they ate, what medications they were jabbed with nor what standards were used to process the meat. </p>
