Let me introduce you to the best podcast about this////; Bad Hasbara a Political Satire Podcast by Matt Lieb and Daniel Mate
youtube
Jew here with a friendly reminder that:
Criticizing Isreal ≠ antisemetic
Supporting Palestine ≠ antisemitic
Believing in the Free Palestine cause ≠ antisemitic
BUT ALSO
A random ass Jew just living their life oceans away has nothing to do with the Isreal-Palestine conflict
Palestinian Jews exist
Jews that support Palestine exist (I am one of them)
Calling out ACTUAL antisemitism ≠ supporting Isreal

Saw a post talking about avoiding commercial meat the next four years and smh
Its not just the meat, its gonna be EVERYTHING.
All food is going to be less safe. Meat to flour to lettuce.
If you can access alternative sources of meat, good. If you can garden, good.
But if you're like me, and in a city with no ability to keep chickens or rabbits, or garden well (no space or money for meat animals, and my soil isn't safe yet for food growing. I'm working on it but its the work of years) thats going to be impossible.
The best you can do is watch the recall lists religiously, and cook ALL your meats as well as possible.
Mostly the kind of dangers won't be things you can taste or see, but also stay vigilant for crap like glass and plastic in things.
Be vigilant with packaging, make sure nothing is punctured or swollen to avoid botulism. If a foods plastic packaging is loose at all, DO NOT buy it.
Don't immediately throw away packaging/labels after you eat something, or take a picture of the lot numbers and dates, just in case you get sick after eating it.
If you can, stock up on things you can freeze now, in the next few months before orange sauron takes over. He probably won't immediately screw with the safety regs, he'll have bigger things to hit first, so try and stockpile what you can before he does.
And lets all hope that he won't try and stay past his term like he's told everyone and god he intends to.
Stay safe, stay alive.
#food safety#current events 2024#this is terrifying but the only way out is through#id also recommend stocking up on things like dish soap and laundry soap and bleach bc those really price jumped his first term

Another fun meat recall, this time due to E. coli contamination! Which can cause kidney failure in 5-10% of infections!
The meat in question was delivered to restaurants not grocery stores, so YOU shouldn't have any, but maybe stay away from the beef if you order out anytime soon?

Listeria again. This time in enoki mushrooms imported from Taiwan, by HH Fresh Trading Corp.
The mushrooms were distributed in West Virginia in multiple retail store locations and were sold on August 20 and August 23, with 240 cases for each date.
The mushroom product comes in a 200-gram, clear plastic package marked with barcode #4711498860019 on the reverse.
It doesn't show a picture, or whether the product is fresh or dried, so I don't know which myself, sorry. But if you're in West Virginia, and bought any kind of enoki mushrooms in August and still have them, better check.
... The article talks about the importance of regulating and testing imports. Really? I mean, SURE, yeah, do that, but also, this is the one of only two imported products I've seen recently that's been contaminated with listeria, the rest were ALL american.
I think the danger is mostly coming from inside, here.

https://norcalpublicmedia.org/2024100296403/news-feed/is-the-food-in-the-fridge-still-good-california-wants-to-end-the-guessing-game
Can't get the link to come out right but GOOD ARTICLE.
California is implementing a new law to take effect by 2026 where disingenuous 'best by' and 'sell by' dates must be replaced by actually accurate information.
As things stand now, there's no actual regulation on the dates you see on food, so they're not always accurate, leading to a great deal of food waste (estimated at around 20% of food waste).

Reminder, because a skeevy scammy text just made its way to my phone without automatically getting dumped in the spam folder;
GOVERNMENT ORGANIZATIONS DO NOT SEND ELECTRONIC MESSAGES
The USPS, for instance, is NOT going to send you a text. The IRS is not going to send you a text.
My scam message was a short paragraph supposedly from the USPS about how there was incomplete address information on a package and how I needed to CLICK THE LINK and go fill out information so my package could be delivered.
Since I HAVE a package I'm waiting for, this caused me to pause for a sec before my brain caught up and i clicked block and report.
Out of curiosity (and yeah boredom tbh) I called the USPS customer service line real quick and talked to someone on their fraud reporting line. She confirmed that USPS will never EVER send a text like that, and they've been getting a TON of reports about similar messages.

respectfully, if men can say “your body, my choice” i guess it’s only fair that we say to them “my gun, your life”
