Recently I came across information that the chicken I have been buying at the grocery store has traces of Arsenic in it.
My question is, "Isn't Arsenic some kind of poison?" And the answer would be, "Yes it is!!!"
I was then shocked when I found out where the Arsenic is coming from. It is in the chicken feed and the Arsenic comes from a pharmaceutical company named Pfizer.
This news became even further disturbing (hard to believe, I know), it's the fact that Arsenic shows up in our blood stream after we eat chicken.
I am seriously thinking about boycotting chicken until something gets done about the Arsenic chicken feed. What are your thoughts about a boycott? Feel free to leave a comment.
I am including two videos for you to view.
I am also including two links for you to check out.
