I dont pay one bit of attention to republicans who whine we need less regulation. That would be a death sentence

Even if you go vegan you dont know if what you are eating is truly vegan. The vegetables we eat today cause salmonella at greater rates than ever before and produce comes from other countries and we dont know what pesticides they use because their laws are less strict or dont exist.

WE MUST bring corporate america to task over our food and FORCE them to do the right thing. THEY WILL NOT on their own.









Clear Food, a subsidiary of food analyzation startup Clear Labs, found that human DNA is present in 2 percent of hot dog and sausage brands, according to a recent study (http://www.clearfood.com/food_reports/2015/the_hotdog_report).
The study also found that two thirds of the samples containing human DNA were advertised as vegetarian and almost 15 percent of products examined contained ingredients that differed from those included on the label.
“The food industry has been a black box for too long. Food consumers have to trust that food labels are accurate, but that isn’t always the case,” said Sasan Amini, Clear Labs CEO and co-founder, in a press release (http://www.prweb.com/releases/2015/10/prweb13037005.htm). “We’ve found a 10-15 percent rate of discrepancy between labeled ingredients and actual ingredients across our internal tests to date.”
The Clear Food study collected 345 samples of hot dogs and sausages — veggie dogs, sausages, and old-fashioned, all-beef hot dogs — from 75 different brands at 10 different retailers, according to their statement. They found that 14.4 percent of the samples were problematic in some way, due to ingredient substitution, addition, or hygienic issues.
“Substitution occurs when ingredients are added that do not show up on the label. Hygienic issues occur when some sort of non-harmful contaminant is introduced to the hot dog, in most cases, human DNA,” said Clear Food in their study.

Really? I could have sworn the article stated that 2/3's of the issue was with vegetarian hot dogs. Since the overriding theme of all your post is how horrible corporate America is I was just wondering how many of the major processors marketed vegetarian or vegan hot dogs.

I have another question. Who the hell is Clear Foods or Clear Labs?

The key phrase is in the food.If the samples being examined were not taken from the surface of the food - & therefore away from casual contamination by handling - then there's more confidence in the testing results. It depends on the sample collection & testing protocols. For some items - apples, grapes - stuff with edible skins - you would want to take surface samples, both washed & unwashed - to see how much difference, if any, there is between the two states.

Other than maybe hamburger & bologna & hot dogs - it shouldn't be possible to have human DNA in prime cuts of meat, for instance. TMK, no one is doing recombinant DNA with livestock - I don't see what the point would be. Still, it wouldn't hurt anything to do the studies - the various state laws railroaded through by the Cattlemen's Associations & so on notwithstanding.

Some Hot Dogs, Sausages Studied Contain Human DNA, Says New Report
By MORGAN KORN

http://abcnews.go.com/Health/hot-dogs-sausages-studied-human-dna-report/story?id=34739080

"Clear Food reported that it found human DNA in six of the 345 samples, or 2 percent of all samples tested. Four of the six samples that tested positive for human DNA were vegetarian products."

"A spokesperson for Clear Food said that human DNA "degrades the quality of food" but is less of a public health concern. The DNA found in the samples likely came from "hair, skin, finger nail or saliva that was accidentally mixed in during the manufacturing process," according to Clear Food."

========================================
Thanks to ABC News for this report.
========================================

Imho, Personally, I never eat those type of foods as many have brought out that they are just not truly healthy foods to consume in the first place. But now with this report, if I ever did force myself to eat it I would forever think of the "extra ingredients" found in such products thus I would more than likely lose my appetite and not eat them at all.

I'm the very same way because we, as consumers, basically expect for all food that is sold to be safe and ready to be consumed without any problems such as that it could later make us sick. For the most part, most foods are alright because the USDA inspects some meat products regularly with regard to their safety, ingredients, etc. though they can't check each and every item of course.

Rule of thumb when dealing with any meat product is to be sure to Cook It Thoroughly! I always like my meat well-done! No exceptions! Anything less than that can invite trouble especially if it's "bloody-rare" according to the experts. Yet many do eat it that way and UGH!! I can't even imagine doing that at all. But to each his or her own and Lots of Luck!

One day you could be the "winner" and get that one chance of getting bad meat.

That's quite true! But the thought of becoming strictly vegan is not so tempting to many I am sure. Therefore, we simply have to use precautions when dealing with meat such as to always consume only fresh meat and cook the meat in high enough heat to kill whatever would not be to the benefit of our system.

Mexican tamale chef kills and cooks his buddyA Mexican tamale chef killed his drinking buddy and made tamales* using the man's body. He cut up the body and boiled the body parts in herbs.http://www.stunning-stuff.com/images/articles/81/image_1.gif
Carlos Machuca, a 56-year-old man, who is tamale-maker for a living, was arrested at his home in Morelia after the police received an anonymous phone call on Tuesday.

When the police arrived at Mr Machuca's house, they found a mutilated corpse of a man in the living room. They also found some body parts simmering in saucepans on the stove.

Lorena Cortes, a spokeswoman for Michoacan state prosecutors said: "We saw the flesh and the tamales, and our first impression was that he was making tamales with the flesh of the deceased, although it has yet to be confirmed".

Lorena also said that it looked like Carlos was trying to dispose of the body by maybe even selling the tamales to customers. According to the police Carlos stabbed the man with a knife trough the heart. It happened after both men got into a fight after they had been drinking together.

& maybe some nice fava frijoles to go with? & of course, the big question: Had the two been binge-watching Sweeney Todd or Fried Green Tomatoes or something similar? (Although, in all fairness, Depp has an awful voice for the part. I wouldn't have thought it would drive people to kill, but maybe the chef was a purist?)

Yah, the whole tamale shtick seems to come up (so to speak) every so often in Mexico. I think their print equivalent of Fox News - ¡Alarma! - covers the entrée with lots of pix, graphic breathless prose, & so on. & a dollop of sour cream, some shredded cheese ...

Or we can just look @ Snopes - see http://www.snopes.com/clear-foods-hot-dog-dna-study/

"Missing from the bevy of articles about human DNA in hot dogs (and meat in veggie dogs) was any explanation about how Clear Food determined those percentages, under which conditions testing occurred, whether any independent entities confirmed or duplicated the claims, and the methodology by which Clear Food arrived at their overall conclusions. Information on the site and Clear Food's Kickstarter provided no information about their testing methods, the credibility of their research, or (most important) what the company's specific objective might be. The flurry of interest bore many similarities to an earlier report claiming California wine was contaminated with arsenic (http://www.snopes.com/food/tainted/arsenicwine.asp), peddled by a company that tested alcoholic beverages for "purity." Clear Food similarly touted its "Clear Score," aimed "to reward the brands with the highest average scores" based on criteria known only by Clear Food.

"While the firm's claims were carried across major online news sites such CNN, MarketWatch, USA Today,, the Boston Globe and Sky News, it's not uncommon for multiple news sources to jump on a PR-based (http://www.snopes.com/tag/not-actually-a-study/) "study" with little to no independent verification of its claims. It's certainly not out of the realm of possibility hot dogs contain ingredients or adulterants folks might find unappetizing, but the claim about meat and human DNA adulterants did not originate with a "study" of any sort. Its findings lay solely with a brand new, private company who didn't disclose any details of their purported testing (or any proof that meaningful research was undertaken at all).

"Clear Food didn't define the terms that they used to describe their findings, such as "genomic analysis technology" (unspecified) or "proprietary next-generation genomic sequencing workflow." Certain brands were deemed "problematic" at a rate of 14.4 percent, but again, no evidence was presented to substantiate that claim or establish the methodology as worthy of consideration. In short, while the results could bear out to some degree should testing be conducted in a scientific setting, Clear Food didn't appear to be an established laboratory presenting vetted data."

(My emphasis - more @ the URL)

Very disappointing. The mass media seem to like putting on these dog 'n' pony shows. Which likely explains why print media are nearly dead in the US, & the e-media are looking kinda feverish. (Note to self: always check Snopes, etc. first ...
