How Many Hands Touch Your Food?

Discover why a shorter meat supply chain means fresher, healthier bison meat.

The Hidden Risks of the Industrial Meat Supply Chain:

Most grocery store meat goes through a long, complex supply chain, increasing contamination risks and lowering quality. Most consumers don't realize how many steps—and risks—are involved before conventional meat reaches their plate.

Here's an Overview:

❌ Factory farms: Overcrowded, antibiotic, synthetic hormone-laden animals

❌ Multiple handlers: Auctions, brokers, and transport stresses the animals

❌ CAFOs & Slaughterhouses: Grain-fed, unhealthy livestock processed in bulk from many sources

❌ Mixed meat: Multiple animals, different production methods, farms, and countries—lack of transparency

❌ Storage delays: Lowers freshness and degrades nutrients. Meat can be stored and shipped multiple times before reaching retailers, increasing exposure to temperature fluctuations and bacteria.

❌ Multiple food-service hands: Passing through grocery stores and restaurants before reaching your plate, where meat has likely been touched by numerous workers.
