Corporate buyouts and consolidation of the food industry is something that I have been concerned about for many years. Long gone are the days where local or regional slaughterhouses, meat packers, canneries, and food producers sold and distributed their products to only small areas of the country or even a single state. Now, a single location produces food that gets distributed all across the nation, even to all 50 states and beyond. So that when there IS a problem, one food plant can can affect millions of people pretty much everywhere.

@@mannymoseley4005 not all of can afford those services, they're VERY EXPENSIVE. Besides that, some of those you mentioned have very poor product. After paying that price to look in the bags to finding moldy, not ripe, over ripe, limp carrots, zucchini that looks like a chicken pecked it, or slimy bad chicken, it's just NOT worth it. It ends up costing even more if one goes to the store to replace the items, orders takeout, or decides to go out to a restaurant.
Unfortunately that could be very difficult due to successful industry lobbying. Look up "MCLIBEL" laws. They range from the mild (can't make statements about how healthy/unhealthy a food is unless you are a medical doctor) to the insane (can't take or post pictures of feed lots and facilities, even if taken from public roads)

Basically, what we had before high-definition flatscreens became a thing.

Cook your own food......properly The fast food is just terrible these days, it really is, people have been gradually accustomed to it, you would never sell it to anyone 20 years ago
I agree that the quality of fast food is awful. However I must say that currently their are eleven health food stores near me, they sell whole cooked chicken, chicken soup and other soups organic meat, organic spices and many other better versions of food than regular grocery stores. And now near me are a few farm to table fresh restaurants. They cook only free range beef and chicken and organic vegetables.

I live in a rural town outside of Phoenix, where the biggest food-store is an independent grocer and the meat, dairy, and produce are grown locally. I've never had any problem with the locally-grown meats, nor do I know anybody else in town who has.
@@stephonwilliams5232 The prices compare well with the big stores in the city, and some of them are cheaper. Chicken and eggs are excellent and fairly cheap -- probably because Buckeye is the HQ of Hickman's Eggs, the biggest employer in town. Beef and dairy are pretty cheap too, probably because Shamrock Dairies -- a co-op of local cattle farmers and ranchers -- is the second biggest employer.

PBS is normally my channel to watch. But they disappointed me by showing this video as a repeat from 20+ years ago. I expected a more modern version of the issue. I'm disappointed in PBS.
Sometimes there isn't anything new to report on, and channels have to recycle stories until something new comes along. I don't mind it. I'd rather watch something old than hear about something bad and negative, which is pretty much all we ever hear about nowadays because America is divided more than ever now, and our corrupt government doesn't care one iota about "We the People." I guess PBS could report on how half of America can no longer even define what a man or woman is and how the liberal half of our nation has gone rogue and insane with twisted and evil ideological beliefs. And it'd have to be a 5-part documentary to list all the destructive policies of liberal democrats to understand the severity and horrible direction in which these corrupt politicians have lead our nation.
I quit eating Taco Bell 16yrs ago, i haven't had BK, McDonald's, Wendy's or any other fast food joint in 12yrs. The last time i had McDonald's it tasted like plastic.

Wendy’s E. coli outbreak was the number one outbreak of 2022, with at least 109 people sick in six states, and 52 patients hospitalized. The CDC says that they were unable to confirm a food source, but more than 80% of patients who were interviewed by public health officials said they ate at a Wendy’s restaurant. Whole genome sequencing showed that isolates from patients were closely related genetically, which means they likely got sick from eating the same food.
I agree 100 percent. I have always detested Wendy's. Try buying one Wendy's hamburger and just sniffing it before eating. You'll probably toss it away and never go back.
I don't eat red meat. All my beef is cooked until it's brown. If everyone cooked meat fully, (no hint of pink remaining), that would go a long way to dealing with the bacteria that can ocurr.
I don't eat red meat often, maybe once every couple of months and only buy organic grass fed beef(hopefully that is the truth) I don't think I'd want an up date on this....what a *ucking scary time we are living in. Peace and Healing to all💜💜💜
I grew up in south america. Cattle south of the border are range raised. The vast LLanos of Colombia and Venezuela come to mind. Huge herds of cattle roam those grasslands, The meat is lean and not marbled. The first time I bit into an american burger I had to spit it out. I couldn't take the fatty taste.
I will say living in small town north Texas with family ranches and family raised cattle who take them to the local or the next town over’s butcher, provides a waaaaay better cut of beef than the supermarkets and chain stores could dream about. And the cows are raised right.
I bet it’s great-I’m envious! Meat here (northern east coast) does not taste like meat. I got sicker than hell on a large burger chain’s burgers in the early ‘80”s and have become an unwilling vegan as a result. I’m not gonna pay for meat/poultry that not only is tasteless but hazardous to my health. I haven’t had beef, chicken, pork that tastes like anything (except what I use for seasonings) or that tastes like it did decades ago. Enjoy your meat!
Totally! And by the way, when you go to a big grocery store and get "grass fed beef," more than likely it was raised in a feedlot eating corn and shot up with hormones/antibiotics, but it was "finished" off eating grass in the last month of its life. Support your local butcher, that way you know what you are getting!
My uncle used to be a butcher and he always told us to rinse the meat, cook thoroughly, or avoid it altogether. He said people work so fast, we're eating human fresh from men who cut themselves as they work

They know damn well the problem rarely begins on the farm. While conditions on large cattle farms is not normal or humane, contamination doesn't usually make it beyond the intake process. Unless there is rampant negligence and allow dead or obviously wounded animals past the gate, a living cow is a self regulating organism, it's flesh is sterile. In the processing plant and beyond is where bacteria colonize products. Unlike vegetables, the outer covering of beef is removed prior to processing. The FDA has gone so far as to close down small farms in the name if safety, when the reality is they are generally much more humane, natural and healthier for the animals and the people who eat them. Most regulatory agencies, the FDA being the prime example, are actually promotion and enforcement agencies for big corporations. Blaming small operators for the dangers introduced by large production practices is a backward and asinine policy totally under the control of lobbyists and big buisness. The root problem here is greed , undermining all regulation and common sense

In my 77 years of life I've had one serious bout of food poisoning where I was ill for a week, lost 20 lb and my wife thought I was going to die because I was grey. It happened in the UK in an Indian restaurant where a health inspector caught one of the cooks coming out of the toilet with feces on his fingers, and he washed them in a sink of water where chickens were defrosting. He found a number of other things, too. I've been in the USA since 1978, eaten many hundreds of burgers and not become ill one time. If four in every ten become ill from food poisoning, it's amazing how it has skipped me. I'll keep eating the burgers, thanks.
Food and especially meat, doesn't taste the same. It's chewy and less tasty. I eat very little meat and every time I go out for a hamburger commercially or at a party, it doesn't taste the same
When the Global Food owner is asked in what way USDA inspector Patsy McKee was the “probably least professional of any inspector I've ever had,” he finally says that she had problems "getting along with me, getting along with the company.” When an industry thinks the safety inspector’s principal job is to get along with those they are inspecting, it’s time to stop using that industry’s products.
...And how 'bout the Bush administration's undersecretary saying the new system doesn't give the companies authority -- it gives them "responsibility." The USDA still has the "authority." How wonderfully newspeak.
I agree. The USDA and the FDA has failed the American people. There is white flour, white salt, white sugar on the food shelves, transfat in foods and these products put in our food in restaurants. These products are spoken of in various videos made by doctors saying they case cancer, when will these agencies stop and bar, ban the production and use of such products? There is a solution, only allow health food stores and farm to table restaurants operate. Give all restaurants two years to change to organic ingredients especially the meat, make it free range, spices, and vegetables and juices and even encourage the sale of organic wine. They should inspect every restaurant and supermarket to make sure they go all organic or are closed down. I don't want people to loose their livelihood or loose jobs but this is an solution to such high numbers to people who have diabetes, cancer heart problems and obesity.

Cook your own food......properly
The fast food is just terrible these days, it really is, people have been gradually accustomed to it, you would never sell it to anyone 20 years ago
I agree that the quality of fast food is awful. However I must say that currently their are eleven health food stores near me, they sell whole cooked chicken, chicken soup and other soups organic meat, organic spices and many other better versions of food than regular grocery stores. And now near me are a few farm to table fresh restaurants. They cook only free range beef and chicken and organic vegetables.

Food poisoning is scary. We are scared to buy a Cantaloupe to this day. We don't buy Romaine lettuce or Cantaloupe at all anymore. Two of our favorite foods. We wonts eat it!!!!
@@mannymoseley4005 dude stop spamming this everywhere. I might have checked one of those out, but you have lost all credibility by spamming that everywhere. Weird that you include hello fresh and blue apron. What makes you think their groceries are any better than the grocery store?
I live in a rural town outside of Phoenix, where the biggest food-store is an independent grocer and the meat, dairy, and produce are grown locally. I've never had any problem with the locally-grown meats, nor do I know anybody else in town who has.
What's the name of the town and grocery store? My son lives near Phoenix
That's what's needed more localized meat production
How expensive is the meats tho???
@@stephonwilliams5232 The prices compare well with the big stores in the city, and some of them are cheaper. Chicken and eggs are excellent and fairly cheap -- probably because Buckeye is the HQ of Hickman's Eggs, the biggest employer in town. Beef and dairy are pretty cheap too, probably because Shamrock Dairies -- a co-op of local cattle farmers and ranchers -- is the second biggest employer.
@@stephonwilliams5232 they are online stores that sell organic and grass fed beef
"It's not the beef industry that's fighting ". No, it's pure greed. Nothing but profit matters.
This is true. They fought for lower standards to these food companies and food stores. I recommend shop at the health food store. Find one near you or order organic food through the mail. Try these businesses see how you like them:

Food poisoning from contaminated meat almost killed me 4 decades
ago. First, it was beef then later chicken.
Loving these old rebroadcasts. Thanks, Frontline!
I think it's disgusting! It's a waste of my time.
I could watch documentaries all day long...these are written so well.
PBS is normally my channel to watch. But they disappointed me by showing this video as a repeat from 20+ years ago.
I expected a more modern version of the issue.
I'm disappointed in PBS.
Sometimes there isn't anything new to report on, and channels have to recycle stories until something new comes along. I don't mind it. I'd rather watch something old than hear about something bad and negative, which is pretty much all we ever hear about nowadays because America is divided more than ever now, and our corrupt government doesn't care one iota about "We the People." I guess PBS could report on how half of America can no longer even define what a man or woman is and how the liberal half of our nation has gone rogue and insane with twisted and evil ideological beliefs. And it'd have to be a 5-part documentary to list all the destructive policies of liberal democrats to understand the severity and horrible direction in which these corrupt politicians have lead our nation.
@@joeking433 Wait. Wasn't that exactly what your momma said right after you were born?

I quit eating Taco Bell 16yrs ago, i haven't had BK, McDonald's, Wendy's or any other fast food joint in 12yrs. The last time i had McDonald's it tasted like plastic. Trust me you will notice a difference in your body when you stop eating fast food. Also cut back on sodas and process food. Food Inc and Salt, Fat, Sugar are good books to read about Our Food. ✌🏾
True ! The fast food and many premade meals taste and odor become odd/off.;.chemically,like perfume in some cases... if you have avoided them for awhile.
I worked at taco bell ass a janitor. In the woman's bathroom was a hand blower. I would find human fecies under the hand blower.
I eat boiled chicken. Eat meat, not alot. I don't eat fast food. I may have it few times a year. Yes, I noticed the difference how my stomach feels eating fast food. The Digestive system has a horrible time processing ,it could make us all sick.
wow are you saying fast food is unhealthy??? where did you obtain this knowledge??
I only eat fish or chicken once or twice a week and mostly plant based for over 6 years, man oh man what a difference in every aspect of my life, from energy, focus, sex drive, health, cholesterol, blood pressure etc etc etc. it’s a remarkable way to live

I am a waitress 40 years. I went vegan at 62. Don't count on the fact that your food is safe, there is so much that goe on even before it gets to a restaurant. Of course if you weren't going out to eat I'd be broke. But be careful and if it looks bad Don't even try it
Sad. Veggies aren’t the way.
Even vegetables you have to be careful with.. gmo
Fruits and vegetables can also become contaminated with salmonella, listeria, E. Coli, etc. No food is completely safe or risk-free.
You can get it from lettuce too

Wendy’s E. coli outbreak was the number one outbreak of 2022, with at least 109 people sick in six states, and 52 patients hospitalized. The CDC says that they were unable to confirm a food source, but more than 80% of patients who were interviewed by public health officials said they ate at a Wendy’s restaurant. Whole genome sequencing showed that isolates from patients were closely related genetically, which means they likely got sick from eating the same food.
I agree 100 percent. I have always detested Wendy's. Try buying one Wendy's hamburger and just sniffing it before eating. You'll probably toss it away and never go back.

I don't eat red meat. All my beef is cooked until it's brown. If everyone cooked meat fully, (no hint of pink remaining), that would go a long way to dealing with the bacteria that can ocurr.
I remember wanting to be a reporter for pbs when I was in high school back in the 80's !!!
Are you honest, moral, a great writer, go for it, pursue that. Will you get a degree in journalism or be self-taught.
Don’t light a match near a feed lot.
I don't eat red meat often, maybe once every couple of months and only buy organic grass fed beef(hopefully that is the truth) I don't think I'd want an up date on this....what a *ucking scary time we are living in. Peace and Healing to all💜💜💜
No food is safe really. There have been plenty of contaminated lettuce incidents. Ice cream. Chicken. Etc.
I grew up in south america. Cattle south of the border are range raised. The vast LLanos of Colombia and Venezuela come to mind. Huge herds of cattle roam those grasslands, The meat is lean and not marbled. The first time I bit into an american burger I had to spit it out. I couldn't take the fatty taste.
Thank you Frontline for the educational updates .
I will say living in small town north Texas with family ranches and family raised cattle who take them to the local or the next town over’s butcher, provides a waaaaay better cut of beef than the supermarkets and chain stores could dream about. And the cows are raised right.
I bet it’s great-I’m envious! Meat here (northern east coast) does not taste like meat. I got sicker than hell on a large burger chain’s burgers in the early ‘80”s and have become an unwilling vegan as a result. I’m not gonna pay for meat/poultry that not only is tasteless but hazardous to my health. I haven’t had beef, chicken, pork that tastes like anything (except what I use for seasonings) or that tastes like it did decades ago. Enjoy your meat!
Totally! And by the way, when you go to a big grocery store and get "grass fed beef," more than likely it was raised in a feedlot eating corn and shot up with hormones/antibiotics, but it was "finished" off eating grass in the last month of its life.
Support your local butcher, that way you know what you are getting!
Needless killing of innocent sentient beings makes the question of how they are raised irrelevant. One more reason to boycott animal products.
@@someguy2135 Needless to say come to Texas and spew those words. You won’t make it far son.
Our cow lived a great life and this week he goes to butcher, it's awesome knowing where your supper came from!
My uncle used to be a butcher and he always told us to rinse the meat, cook thoroughly, or avoid it altogether. He said people work so fast, we're eating human fresh from men who cut themselves as they work

I've eaten hundreds of hamburgers. Never got any bacterial sickness whatsoever. That's an A+ for American meat. For good health, most Americans need to eat more vegetables and less everything else btw.
We need more localized farming. In sustainable ways. It can be done! 30% of food cost is the cost to transport it!

Ofcourse its tyranny among these elite corporations. Regulations are hard to implement since they pay or cast out those who oppose. Sad world. But still thank you for people like Ms. Patsy McKee for being brave on implementing her job well.
Lobbying isn't exclusive to the meat industry, sadly.
We can shop at a health food store. We can write the FDA and tell what we don't like. And we can write our Congressman and share our concerns. Be safe. Stay healthy. God bless you.
dude people flip out and blame democrats when eggs go up 50 cents in price. its politically impossible to get stricter regulation done because it will be promptly weaponized by conservatives using sophisticated public opinion contractors that have perfected how to manipulate the public so it believes their best interests are aligned with the assholes who fly private jets to board meetings
We need updated info regarding our food in 2023
@pbs This needs an update.. and what a sad industry, hope we can replace it completely with something better for humans, the animals, and the planet
Something better does has been around for many years it is called the health food store. There are also farm to table fresh restaurants. See if the health food store will ship food to you. Check for online organic health food stores They can ship food to you. Our bodies are amazing but we must care for them with proper food and exercise and rest. You can walk, jog, swim, do yoga, pilates, take karate lessons, do aerobics, do weight training.

They know damn well the problem rarely begins on the farm. While conditions on large cattle farms is not normal or humane, contamination doesn't usually make it beyond the intake process. Unless there is rampant negligence and allow dead or obviously wounded animals past the gate, a living cow is a self regulating organism, it's flesh is sterile. In the processing plant and beyond is where bacteria colonize products. Unlike vegetables, the outer covering of beef is removed prior to processing. The FDA has gone so far as to close down small farms in the name if safety, when the reality is they are generally much more humane, natural and healthier for the animals and the people who eat them. Most regulatory agencies, the FDA being the prime example, are actually promotion and enforcement agencies for big corporations. Blaming small operators for the dangers introduced by large production practices is a backward and asinine policy totally under the control of lobbyists and big buisness. The root problem here is greed , undermining all regulation and common sense

Watching this helps me understand why one would become a vegan
Watching this video has given me a huge encouragement to limit my meat consumption to just 4 days in a month that is on 4 Sundays.
After years hearing many stories, viewing many programs on food I've decided to have every Monday and Tuesday to be vegetarian days. It's to be healthier. And to better manage my weight. I also eat from a health food store. I frequent farm to table fresh restaurants. The health food store is the way to go.
Cows that live on grass produce more nutritious meat. Buy from your local rancher if you can. Your life and health depends on it. God created the perfect system.

Of our food over same issues are likely just not being reported. As a consumer I've observed/ experienced behavior, food quality at restaurants. Not inform dyes used to keep meat looking healthy red instores. Also plzzz lobbyist role.
The consumer has to do alternative things because the FDA is not doing it's job to keep unsafe, unhealthy products off the shelves in food stores, namely white sugar, white flour, white flour, processed meats and transfat out of our food, off the shelves, so people have to be wise, savvy and shop at health food stores.

Man this makes you think you better think twice about any bite of meat you may take...I've been eating my steak medium rare for 25 years I eat my burger medium the same amount of time. I've Never been sick not once. I love red meat. Lamb beef all of it.

In my 77 years of life I've had one serious bout of food poisoning where I was ill for a week, lost 20 lb and my wife thought I was going to die because I was grey. It happened in the UK in an Indian restaurant where a health inspector caught one of the cooks coming out of the toilet with feces on his fingers, and he washed them in a sink of water where chickens were defrosting. He found a number of other things, too.
I've been in the USA since 1978, eaten many hundreds of burgers and not become ill one time. If four in every ten become ill from food poisoning, it's amazing how it has skipped me. I'll keep eating the burgers, thanks.
So glad to be vegan and not partake in this absolute horror.
word! I cried.
Food and especially meat, doesn't taste the same. It's chewy and less tasty. I eat very little meat and every time I go out for a hamburger commercially or at a party, it doesn't taste the same
Fucking thing is 20 years old............don't want to even think what it's like now..........sigh........ Z

When the Global Food owner is asked in what way USDA inspector Patsy McKee was the “probably least professional of any inspector I've ever had,” he finally says that she had problems "getting along with me, getting along with the company.”
When an industry thinks the safety inspector’s principal job is to get along with those they are inspecting, it’s time to stop using that industry’s products.
...And how 'bout the Bush administration's undersecretary saying the new system doesn't give the companies authority -- it gives them "responsibility." The USDA still has the "authority." How wonderfully newspeak.
I agree. The USDA and the FDA has failed the American people.
There is white flour, white salt, white sugar on the food shelves, transfat in foods and these products put in our food in restaurants. These products are spoken of in various videos made by doctors saying they case cancer, when will these agencies stop and bar, ban the production and use of such products? There is a solution, only allow health food stores and farm to table restaurants operate. Give all restaurants two years to change to organic ingredients especially the meat, make it free range, spices, and vegetables and juices and even encourage the sale of organic wine. They should inspect every restaurant and supermarket to make sure they go all organic or are closed down. I don't want people to loose their livelihood or loose jobs but this is an solution to such high numbers to people who have diabetes, cancer heart problems and obesity. Change what is available on the food shelves to all organic food to purchase. This would make a wonderful difference in people's lives.
