Walmart Throws Out $19,000 In Meat After Man Pokes Syringe Into Sausages

It’s a classic saying: One bad apple spoils the entire barrel, and a few syringe-poked packages of breakfast sausage causes Walmart to toss out the entire section of the meat department.
Early Saturday morning, an employee at the Walmart in Poulsbo, WA, noticed a hypodermic syringe sticking out of a Jimmy Dean sausage. An inspection of nearby packages revealed that they too had been poked.

“Somebody had pushed a syringe into the tube at an angle, and it poked out the other side,”a Poulsbo police officer tells KOMO News. “The actual metal needle tip was not attached to the syringe though.”

This would be why I have not purchased meat from any store or butcher. Grow your own fools. Then, and only then, you have control of what goes into your families bodies.

And before some vegan comes in bashing meats, if you only knew what your precious "organic" veggies get... you'd die of starvation.

Grocery store meat is disgusting.
