The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.

Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason WHY YSK:
In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: Itβs helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.
Rule 11- Posts must actually be true:
Disinformation, trolling, and being misleading will not be tolerated. Repeated or egregious attempts will earn you a ban. This also applies to filing reports: If you continually file false reports YOU WILL BE BANNED! We can see who reports what, and shenanigans will not be tolerated. We are not here to ban people who said something you don't like.
Rule 12- Linking directly to a video as a source is not acceptable.
Video only posts are responsible for an outsized portion of rules violations. Your post must contain text and meet the requirements of the previous rules.
Rule 13- If you file a report, include what specific rule is being violated and how.

Probably applies to Canadians too.
How's that chlorinated chicken going... Yeah
damn. big meat running roughshod turns into a problem - who knew?
When is meat not recalled in the US?
You guys should probably set up some sort of the government department to keep an eye on this.
Sounds woke tbh
Yeah nobody needs any of that gay regulation commie bullshit
They want to trans your milk. Don't let them.
for real, that shit won't happen with proper government regulation and monitoring
If you live in America right now you should probably not eat anything. Everything seems to be fucked.
167,000 pounds sounds like .001% of what is currently for sale nationwide, or something.
This is why I only eat meat I bought years ago.
This is more you should know if your in Georgia. America isn't so tiny that this small of a recall is remotely fucking close to "if you are American".
I got very worried for a second. But the post title is nothing but fear mongering and very misleading.
Do people not realize how fucking MASSIVE America is?
They don't. The old saying rings true: Americans think 100 years is old, and Europeans think 100 miles is far.
Everybody only has their own perception and experience to really go off of, so I don't blame folks for this. It just is the way it is.
YSK Costco does independent testing of their meat.
YSK California has the most stringent food safety regulations in the country, going above and beyond what the fed requires. Thank fuck I live here and not somewhere that does the bare minimum required of them (which, rn, is doing nothing at all).
I don't want to like Costco, but they're making it really hard.
I don't like being in there, I don't like shopping in a damn warehouse. I hate the parking lot clusterfuck experience.
I do like that they curate a very good selection and they treat their employees well.
Why can't they just run a normal-scale grocery store?!
Why canβt they just run a normal-scale grocery store?!
It could be argued that if they did, they might suck like the rest of them.
Personally, I hate needing to pay a god damn subscription in order to spend more money buying stuff at their store.
I felt the same way about a search engine, until I realized you're paying for curation, which is what makes it good.
Except for their own Kirkland Signature brand, they sell the same shit everyone else does but bigger. What curation?
but... it's bigger
"Why not have them go to 10 and just make 10 louder?"
"...These go to 11."
This is bad advice, fellow Americans.
Look up where the recalls and violations have happened. Also, look up the cuts of meat.
Big numbers don't mean all of America. What a stupid suggestion.
Plot twist: this is big veggies trying to get people to stop eating meat.
I mean, definitely read the article, 167000 lbs, isn't very much. I imagine that a certain area around north Carolina is affected, but not much more then that.
I think the best advice is to do both: check what meat if affected and whether that might include the meat you're looking at. If you're not sure, maybe skip meat for a change. You can do without.
Don't buy meat at all.
This is the way.
