"There is an acceptable level of feces to be present in meat?"
Not just meat - there is even a European legal limit for the amount of mouse excrement permitted in chocolate - the industrialisation of food is indeed abominable! It promotes unhealthy eating and environmentally damaging farming methods, while disadvantaging third world farmers using traditional methods.
The only solution is to stop (or reduce as much as is feasible) buying industrially produced food - produce and prepare what you can, and buy what you can't locally, from responsible, small-scale producers.

Im not a vegitarian but I rarely have meat unless someone else cooks it. I remember when an american slaughterhouse was charged for having more than the acceptable levels of feces in their meat... "There is an acceptable level of feces to be present in meat?"- was what kind of put me on the path of cutting out the fleshy side of my diet. Then after discovering what is done in factory-farms to chickens I pretty much wanted to shoot somebody in the kneecaps for that bit of psycho-sadism. Everytime I think about it it makes me really angry- even now after years. We have canines and forward focusing eyes along with molars- we are meant to eat whatever we can scrounge up- whether animal or not, but there is no need for abomination in the process.

Jazake, lately I've had very little time to work on my bots. I think there are cycles of when we all get busy. I agree with Rainstorm. Posting shouldn't be dependant on how much you were able to program that day.
