"Certain hormones can make young animals gain weight faster. They help reduce the waiting time and the amount of feed eaten by an animal before slaughter in meat industries. In dairy cows, hormones can be used to increase milk production. Thus, hormones can increase the profitability of the meat and dairy industries" - http://envirocancer.cornell.edu/Factsheet/Diet/fs37.hormones.cfm

Could you imagine having that talk with a 6-8 year old girl?

Didn't we know this over 10 years ago?

In the US, labeling tells people what meat isn't. Hormone free, antibiotics free, free range, not fed it's brother's beak, etc. In a free market, this information about what meat isn't is added to justify the price.
This article will help people make choices.
Maybe price shouldn't be the *only* motivating factor.

Exactly. I've started shopping at Whole Foods and Trader Joe's recently because I'm just fed up with putting toxic s**t in my body and I want to prevent things like this.

It is good that you are not putting any more toxic s**t in your body vbullinger. I imagine that you are already full of it already and have no room for more.Comment is buried, click here to see the rest.

^^ Wow, talk about trolling.
So... what have I done to deserve this vitriolic stalking? I'm a pretty nice guy. Ask anyone that knows me.

How many comments of mine have you replied to? Tons, and none of them were nice. This is the first comment of yours that I've ever replied to!

Maybe it has something to do with all the hormones and s**t that contaminates our food and water supply!
