I was going to write about my late summer trip to Albert Lea Lake and my camping at Myre-Big Island State Park but then...

.....................................................THIS GUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you haven't heard of this story here it is about this crazy mo-fo(<---click link for story)... The short of the story is this Texas guy worked in a meat rendering plant and killed 71 of his co-workers in 17 years. That alone wouldn't bear me mentioning him EXCEPT for the fact he got rid of the corpses by mixing them in the other animal meat at the rendering plant.

So what does that mean? It brings an entire new meaning when you say you are hungry for Mexican ... It also means unfortunately most of us (if you are not a vegan) have eaten products that contain human remains. The FDA releases data all the time letting us know how much rat poop and bugs we eat on average that gets into our food. And you know any guberment agency is going to be well paid by lobbyist groups so the data we the public get I'm sure is not the full numbers. Don't be freaked out too much about the bugs, a lot of artificial and "natural" food products added to processed food is made from bugs and other strange things like beaver anal glands.

Grizzly Bradams isn't going to bombard you with facts and numbers - Grizzly Bradams doesn't care if his chances of eating human are one in a billion, he doesn't need it. Even if I never accidently eat human I've seen first hand what these meat rendering plants are like. The bigger plants are cleaner and monitored better but you get some of these backwoods hillbilly places like the one mentioned in Texas and bugs and rat poop getting into the meat isn't a question of if but how much?

This guy is the poster boy for living off the grid while living on it. This guy has motivated me more than ever to hit my goal of farming, fishing, hunting, 80% of my food in five years.

The obvious answer is to simply stop eating meat. For Grizzly Bradams that isn't going to happen again. I did that and even though some people can adjust and get protein from other sources it doesn't work for Grizzly Bradams. Plus Grizzly Bradams likes to eat meat -- Grizzly Bradams never salivated over the smell of a Tempeh burger on the grill.
