[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 606163, member: 7509"] Dun, I respect the advice you give on here. I ask that you respect my relaying of my MD-daughter's comments to me. She is not an "organic veggie folk". She is an experienced doctor. And a darned good one may I add. I am an agricultural engineer by training and practice on my day job. Neither my daughter nor I have an "agenda" here or with regard to antibiotics. I am not sure that this antibiotic resistance my daughter sees is due to antibiotics in food products. But then again I am not sure that it is not. Nor, as an engineer, do I see any way that anyone could conclusively prove either way without decades long controlled studies which would be largely unethical. I don't think it is possible to "debunk" nor prove the theory. In my case, given the lack of proof either way, I choose to err on the side of caution. For myself and my family. Other folks may feel this way and may then be a market for "natural beef". If we don't fill this market need, other movements such as promoting vegetarianism, may. It seems to me that we need to be respectful of both sides of this issue since there is so little chance of conclusively and scientifically proving either point of view. I also realize that this type of thinking may not be popular on this particular website. However I think it is important to listen to alternative views in any undertaking. Or other views can be ignored... [/QUOTE]
