Oh, we see it perfectly well, but there's nothing we can do about it, so we ignore it fatalistically.

... I am a vegetarian -- so that makes it a little easier to only "Eat those foods that grandma would recognize as food". Things such as vege's, beans, eggs, whole grains and so on... I do drink milk (which is probably loaded with hormones and all sorts of other nasty stuff) -- but you do what you can.

Yup, the idle immune system is the devil's playground. Asthma, celiac, rheumatoid arthritis, etc. are on the rise, and this may be part of the explanation. Kids who grew up with pets tend to be healthier than others.

This is the problem with Horsemeat and I don't care if I eat it or not but I would prefer not to have the "Illegal" stuff that has not been checked and verified for Drugs. But animal husbandry means that any meat entering the food chain will be Contaminated with drugs in some way. To eliminate Disease in animals there are antibiotics that have been deemed to be safe-Hormones to increase weight of the animal and the food they are fed can come from some most unsavoury sources. The same can be said for Fruit-Vegetables- grain and other commercially produced foods.
You don't really know what you are eating and you will have to a fanatic to ensure that you only eat organic produce. I am afraid that my pocket cannot afford to be that finickity.

I for one have found a source that is reasonably local (if you are an urban dweller like me you have to make the compromise in the case of beef, that "local" is less than 500 miles) I can get it from closer, cut that is all feed lot beef from about 75 miles from here.
