I made another post that seems to have poofed. Short and sweet is I think this is just George having fun rattling chains. Anyone who is the least bit squeamish about food and what grew the food would probably never eat if they really looked at thing. To take the idea George is using a bit further-, yup, chickens and pigs will root around in cow and horse poop looking for food. Plants do the same thing and all our foods are the result of one plant or animal eating the byproduct of another. The bread you eat grew from wheat that fed off the poop of zillions of insects, microbes, protozoa, bacteria, etc. The cow ate lots of bugs over it's life and momma cow loves to lick the crap off her calf. That's straight cow crap, not the grains in it, going right into mommas mouth. That baked potato skin is going to have some dirt with worm and bug and maybe livestock crap on it.
Where do you want to draw the line? Humans decompose and feed the plants and bugs and worms that the chickens and pigs and cows end up eating when you come down to it.
It's all a game of perspective. I'd lots rather eat something I know ate grass and licked it's calfs butt than a tomato from some country where they spray pure poison on the plants every day and that has to wash off with soap and water. Nobody uses soap and water on veggies. Juan the illegal with TB that's picking that lettuce has been known to hack a lugie onto that head of lettuce that gets a quick rinse.

While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
