Since so many of us either have allergies to/or have become immune to so many Antibiotics and Chicken, I thought this was an important piece of news.

"U.S. Sticks to Ban of Bayer Antibiotic on Poultry"

"U.S. regulators on Friday rejected a last-ditch request from poultry veterinarians to delay its ban on a livestock antibiotic believed to reduce the effectiveness of similar drugs in humans."

What do you think about this ban? Do you feel that it will help you in the long run? Do you believe it will hurt the poultry business and in turn eventually hurt us due to increased prices of poultry?

Let me know what you think?!

Hugs, Teri
