Our Hen House is great! They have such a wide variety of guests doing all types of work around the world.

I was not expecting this topic for Andersen 's next doc. I’m not religious myself, but I’m interested in seeing where they go with it.

I wish lol. It seems like they hated how vague the slogan is and wanted the right to throw shade:

The promotions issued pursuant to the Beef Act are generic in character - meaning that, among other things, they do not distinguish between the grain-fed U.S. beef produced by respondents and the grass-fed beef produced abroad, which respondents regard as inferior. Respondents object to this simplistic “beef is good” message, which obscures the quality differences between U.S. and foreign beef.

Government speech has the ability to change with every election, the Supreme Court said:

If the citizenry objects, newly elected officials later could espouse some different or contrary position.

But with voters ignoring the issue because their government tells them eggs are incredible and asks them if they got milk? With them choosing not to advertise plant based foods as legitimate alternatives with the same pizzazz?

We’re fighting industry messaging fed to us by our government, from our first school lunch all the way to senior meal programs, which serves to funnel money to the big corporations that control the market. The corporations use their money to bankroll politicians for more influence and more funding in the next farm bill. The cycle continues.

No matter what we buy or don’t buy, they continue unfazed knowing 40% of food gets thrown away and that many of the animals they breed into existence are destined for the dumpster. They rake in cash regardless because our food system was built by and for corporations.

It’s absurd and overwhelming, and it’s time Uncle Sam and the Cowboys got a divorce.

Laurels (Kalmia genus) are evergreens with cool flowers. However, they’re highly poisonous if eaten so not good around curious kids or animals.

Witch Hazel can take a few years to bloom and the leaves can look raggedy with all the insect action. But I did see a witch hat gall this summer which was really neat!

Spicebush could be an option. Black chokeberry too, it has awesome fall color.
