Answers: The subpoena, if approved, comes a little more than week after the Westland/Hallmark Meat Co. chief executive didn't show up to testify at a congressional hearing on food safety. Several food company executives were invited.

I think this company needs to be set an example of. Even if you believe in the consumption of animals you have to agree that making sure food they are putting on shelves and in our schools NEEDS to be safe.
I don't know what kiss me for luck is talking about since it was the workers that were caught on film not anyone from peta or whatever alf is.
"Westland/Hallmark recalled $143 million pounds of beef last month after the U.S. Humane Society exposed video of workers breaking rules that prevent sick cattle from entering the food supply.
The video showed workers kicking and shoving sick and crippled cows and forcing them to stand with electric prods, forklifts and water hoses."
What wonderful people they have working for them!
i think that the meat was infested with something and that there trying to cover there mistake
They're doing their duty in investigating what happened. The fact that the CEO didn't show up (note it was an invitation not a subpoena) is probably because they're pretty damn busy trying to make up for a lot of lost $$$.
Did we find out if it was A.L.F. or PETA that put those pills in the fish yet?
EDIT: I'm sure you'd be denying E.L.F. had anything to do with burning down those buildings too, had they not left their calling card. It's completely possible an employee that worked with the fish did it. But it's also completely possible they were part of A.L.F. or PETA as well.
