Not exactly how I would want my rice dried:

However, I'm sure people could post pictures of a slaughter house which would make we want to go VEGAN!!!

what would be a more "organic" way of drying rice? I don't see anything wrong with this picture. – coffeesnob May 8 2012 at 0:57

I guess I object to the motor vehicle petro-chemical residue on the street. – CaveMan_Mike May 8 2012 at 1:11

There is CERTAINLY something wrong with this picture. Pavement is highly toxic stuff.. – AG May 8 2012 at 1:54

Oh I didn't know that. Specifically what in the pavement poses health risks? – coffeesnob May 8 2012 at 3:49

Asphalt/Tarmac is held together with straight tar. Nasty. Not to mention all the dripped gasoline, oil, coolants, peoples mucus, urine, feces. If you werent starving, would you eat food that had fallen on to the road? – kaiulini May 8 2012 at 14:05

Given that I no longer eat brown rice - it doesn't affect me either way! But if it was joints of organic beef strewn over the pavement - I wouldn't buy them!

Slaughterhouse pic wouldn't make me go vegan. I was watching a friend field dress a deer he'd just shot on our property, and he was just going to leave the heart there with all the other entrails. So, I reached down and grabbed the bloody heart with my bare hand, took it back to the house, and ate it for breakfast the next day.

Gore doesn't gross me out in any way shape or form, but animal cruelty makes me feel sick. I think that's the important difference. – JeJ May 8 2012 at 0:58

OMG: on behalf of all my fellow city-slicker paleo peeps: I'd probably go on a hunger strike after seeing that! – CaveMan_Mike May 8 2012 at 1:04

I think a deer shot in the backyard environment vs. an animal in a slaughter house are two very different experiences. – Sunny Beaches May 8 2012 at 1:14

Mike: maybe you shouldn't be eating meat, if that is the case. – raney May 8 2012 at 14:00

@Raney, I enjoy eating meat - just not seeing how it arrives on my dinner plate. – CaveMan_Mike May 9 2012 at 0:02

Oh boy, you probably don't want to look into food production, you'll probably never eat again...

I was in Viet Nam in November and I saw rice being dried like that all over the place. My initial thought wasn't that It was particularly dirty but a lot of the drying takes place in on major roads. It looks pretty dangerous for the people doing the work.

Does this make you want to buy organic? (pictures below)
