A little back story to this article.
This gentleman purchased a pig with a friend.
He raised the pig for the two of them, and then did the processing upon which his friend came to pick up his half.

Menawhile, a nosy neighbor had reported him to authorites for illegal activities related to this pig.
An investigator staked out in this neighbors treehouse, waiting for proof that soemone other then the homeowner, owned part of that pig.

The awful part? This bill outlawing the practice of friends rasing meat together, was put into law without it being made public.

Talk about stupid food laws, I was at the health food store today , looking to get eucalyptus essential oil. They are having a hard time getting it in,b /c of government interference. Seems they have to test it to see if it has any helath benefits, then put a label on it, before it can be sold in the stores again. I went to another store, where they actually had two jars, and snagged them up. Dang govt has to stick there nose in everything.

The goal is to get all alternative natural suppliments off the market.

Green Pastures (Blue Ice Fermented cod liver oil) has found a way to label that at least keeps those regulators at bay for now.
Its only a matterof time though. As soon as they figure out that taking a combo of the fermented clo and the butter oil heals cavities, they will work harder at shutting them down.
Can't have those dentists losing business :rolleyes:
