Do you know where your food comes from?

How many of you really know where your food comes from? I mean more then just going to the grocery store and picking it off the shelf? i didn't think so, all you guys have to do is go to the grocery store and pick it off the shelf and its yours. What if you wake up one day and there is no food on those shelves or you have to stand in line for your food how would you like that, well appreciate the farmer that makes that more possible for you and that wont happen.



It was kinda of up setting the other day when a lady from class was complaining about how much her hamburger cost in the store and was blaming the farmer! I said hey back up here and think about what are saying and blaming, trying growing your own food then. everyone blames us when the price of food goes up in the grosery stores, but no one looks for the middle man. the middle man is make all the profit he steels the food from us and charges the consumer of th butt for it! I HATE IT!



with the beef you eat, we buy that animal at 500 pounds for $1.05 per pound feed it and care for that animal such as shots if it gets sick, dewormer, and other products to keep that animal health for your consumstion. Then we sell that animal at 1350 for about 80 cents per pound we dont even break even let alone make a profit. so what you as a people need to realise is that the "middle man" makes all the money, so you grosery stores, or you locker plants they make the money they rip you off ! not the farmer.
