The animal-based protein corporations, feed crop corporations and pharmaceutical industry want to prevent business innovation and deny consumers the choice to consume protein produced in alignment with their values.

Should the American Veterinary Medical Association Guidelines protect consumer confidence in animal-based protein and the industry’s social license to operate? Or should they protect the interests of animals, public health, & food security?

What do you think our government should be incentivizing with public funds? Corporate interests or the interests of everyone (no matter their species.)

I do have plenty of time to stand with my ladies and fight injustice.
If you call that drama then… 💅

Your 401k is tanking, but guess who’s thriving?
Cal-Maine Foods—the nation’s largest egg producer—got $44 million of your tax dollars after losing birds to disease.
They’re also raking in record profits and their stock price is soaring thanks to higher egg prices.
Do you get a cut of that?

Interestingly, the UK recently conducted tests and confirmed the presence of avian influenza in a sheep. However, I have a hunch this might not be an isolated case.
Anyone know if we are testing sheep here in the US?

Lately, I've been thinking about which species would be infected next.
During my observations in the California Central Valley, I couldn't help but notice several herds with deceased sheep alarmingly close to large poultry and dairy facilities.

There is a reason you only hear about the price of eggs and not the bailout money or Cal-Maine's stock price.
The Cargills and pharma execs need you to keep feeding chickens and supporting egg subsidies so they can buy another yacht.
