    Just steer clear of Tyson altogether. Aside from all their abuses, there’s a recall or safety issue with their food like every other week

        Luckily I’ve gone vegetarian, and my kids I buy them good chicken from local farms. That super market chicken doesn’t even look right

      Seriously this. Not to mention the multiple lawsuits over the past twenty years, over a lot of things.

      That cheap chicken you’re eating is full of interesting chemicals.

      I feel bad for the people who take your comments to heart and end up getting ripped off as a result.

    Approximately 29,819 pounds of the Fun Nuggets are impacted
    The contaminated nuggets were made on Sept. 5

    30,000 lbs is 1 day’s worth of production?? Of 1 type of product? I’m not sure why, but I find that appalling.

      I don’t understand. What do you expect out of a company that distributes nationally? The US has a population of 330+ million. That’s a lot of mouths to feed.

      It’s not unheard of for Americans to eat at least a pound of meat per day.

      30,000 is a drop in the bucket.

      but I find that appalling.

      Probably because you’re not able to comprehend feeding 300 million people.

    How horrifying. Mostly kids eat those, and young ones are after bad at communicating unexpected issues.

    There was one “minor oral injury,” FSIS said, but no other reports of injuries or illnesses have been reported as a result of eating the nuggets.

    The contaminated nuggets were made on Sept. 5, according to the release, and were shipped across the U.S. to distributors in Alabama, California, Illinois, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, Tennessee, Virginia, and Wisconsin.

      Pretty sure iron deficiency is treated with rust pills. Literally just powdered rust. And as we all know rust is just the “refined” product of iron with oxygen. That’s precedence if I ever saw it.

        No, iron supplements are not rust pills.

        Ferrous salts used as supplements by mouth include ferrous fumarate, ferrous gluconate, ferrous succinate, and ferrous sulfate.[3] Injectable forms include iron dextran and iron sucrose.

            If you want to call things like iron sulfate “refined iron” then you can call anything almost anything. Table salt? Altered chlorine. Refined chlorine. No no, even better: modified chemical warfare agent.

              Ever inhale chlorine gas? Deadly! Ever tossed sodium in water? Explosive! Putting the two together could absolutely be modified chemical warfare agent. We should add it to the ban list right under dihydrogen monoxide.
