The PFAS concentrations detected in pet food in this study are a significant source of daily exposure for companion animals. Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances are a class of synthetic chemicals often used in plastics, cleaning products and non-stick coatings. They can take over 1,000 years to break down and have been detected in nearly all environments including remote Arctic areas, deep oceans, drinking water and human blood.

In 2018, an Aldi customer bought frozen Kirkwood-brand turkey burgers from a Pittsburgh store and cooked them according to the directions on the back of the package. After placing the frozen patty in a skillet of oil, the burger exploded, causing second-degree burns. In early 2019, the customer filed a lawsuit against the grocery chain for about $35,000.

Politte gave us a great guide to positive signs to look for (and red flags to avoid) based on the appearance of your rotisserie chicken. On the plus side he says, "The skin should be an even golden-brown. This means the chicken was roasted well and will likely taste good." Politte also notes that coloring should be uniform around the whole chicken with no real pale or burnt areas. Beyond that, he tells us, "Look for skin that looks crisp and firm, not loose or rubbery." Politte also warns against buying rotisserie chickens that look too greasy, saying, "A little shine is fine, but the skin shouldn't be very oily."

Also called ADA, azodicarbonamide strengthens gluten bonds in bread. It makes the final product rise higher and have a fluffier texture.

RealAgriculture's Shaun Haney was at CattleCon 2026 in Nashville, Tennessee, this week, to discuss the state of the cattle industry, trade relationships, and the policy challenges shaping the years ahead.

E. coli - you don't want it. You really, really don't. Properly known as Escherichia coli, E. coli are bacteria found in the intestines of humans and animals. While many of them are harmless, some kinds can cause severe gastrointestinal illness, with the most dangerous pathogenic types - such as Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) - potentially leading to kidney failure and death, particularly among vulnerable groups such as children, the elderly, and those with compromised immune systems.
