The Treatment of Farm Animals Will Make You Squeal

I first created this blog describing all the positive aspects of Maple Leaf Foods using information issued from Maple Leaf Foods websites.

Now I change directions in order to describe the harsh truth from the Listeria outbreak at Maple Leaf Foods. We all know that companies try their best to hide their mistakes. Mistakes which can ruin a company's reputation.

Journalist name Ziyaad Mia wrote an article exposing how animals are treated in the farms.

CTV aired an episode called "Food for Thought," which included undercover video of inhumane treatment to animals.  It is difficult to watch, but it raises an important question about the treatment of animals used for food in Canada.


The video shows pigs with open wounds living confined in tight stalls, piglets being castrated without any anesthetics and piglets killed with blunt force trauma. Slamming animal heads into concrete is not something we want to see and eat.

To read the full article here is the link:

Now that you know what happens in Maple Leaf Farm meat processing plants, are you still going to purchase their products? Do you believe what they are the stating is the truth, or is something more happening?

Stay tuned to see more of the truth behind this company!
