Food School: Day 3 (Beaver Butt Video)

Today for class I want you to watch a video.  

Do I get the best teacher award?

When you were in school did you like the days that you were able to watch a *gasp* filmstrip-ka thunk, ka thunk, ka thunk . . . did the memories come flooding back?  

I watched this video and then spent a few hours researching the facts–and sadly this video is correct.  If you would like me to send you the sites and additional video I can–leave a note in the comments section.  I found some videos to be offensive and I want this site to be classroom friendly–like a real classroom full of kids not just us adults learning.

Vani is a fellow blogger and has an incredible sense of humor to get her point across.

After you watch this–please let me know via comments, email or FB if you will be reading your food labels and making any changes!

Be Blessed.  

Ps.  This made me think about more than just a beaver’s butt–why do we kill beavers?  what are the pelts used for?  why do they use the work “harvest”, it makes it sound like you just go out and pick a beaver.  This is a great example of how this blog is more than a place to exchange recipes!  I want to create awareness.  So the question is:  Do you want to be open to understanding where your food comes from?

      Vani does a great job with her videos! I too am looking at all the processed food that says “natural flavoring”–another reason to cook my own food!

      Be Blessed.

  1. […] and here.  I wondered, was it vegan?  I read the label but as we know from other posts (here) that labels are not exactly honest information.  So I called the customer service number. […]
