Antibiotics in food already a threat

TRICK OR TREAT! Halloween is a mix of fun food and fun scares. But

food that's scary? That's not fun. Unfortunately, these days, scary

food is a credible threat, and U.S. farms are rushing new security

measures into place.

 

We don't know what biohazard may be in the works, but there is one

farming trend that may be a biohazard in and of itself: the excessive

use of antibiotics, primarily in meat production but also in plant

pesticides.
