Really? How many animals have you ever sold at auction? How much experience do you have as a farmer?

I have sold dozens, and was raised on a farm.

Are you at Atkins-ite?

Where are the numerous and documented problems pigs have from eating fructose in corn?

“Nothing’s wasted in ethanol anyway”

8 billion a year is wasted.

A lot of energy every year is wasted.

40% of our edible corn crop is “wasted” and made into a pig food supplement.

You ARE ignorant!

I myself have none, but as I said I know and grew up with many farmers who have several thousand pigs in the confinements at any given time. I am telling you what they are telling me.

Too much corn produces fat. Fructose not needed for energy converts to fat. Farmers don’t want fat meat. That’s why they finish with corn-soybean meal feed here in Iowa, to get the right ratio of carb-fat-protein-fiber to produce meat with low fat. It’s pretty simple really.

Nice try with the Alinsky tactics though. You’re desperate to get a ‘Atkins-ite’ label, or any label on me because your argument isn’t holding water. Since you’re obviously high on carbs, does that make you a PETA person?
