"Superbugs" in Meat

Research conducted in 2011 shows that nearly half of all meat and poultry products are contaminated with a deadly bacteria. Many of the bacteria that infects meat products are drug resistant and the factory animal farms where the meat comes from is the source of the outbreak.The animals from those are dosed with antibiotics and vaccines that are creating imbalances in their immune system and therefore making them susceptible to drug resistant "superbugs" such as the deadly S. aureus, which can be fatal if ingested.

Packaged meat, on the other hand, has been found to contain a cancer-causing ingredient called sodium nitrite.It is an additive to meat products for more redness and is also proven to kill botulism. Recommendations for the safety of meat consumers is to buy locally and to thoroughly cook the meat to kill the potential pathogens.
