It's a cheap bypass to purchasing sweet feed. If there was a cattle feed with the exact same ingredients but was labeled cattle feed no one would blink an eye

Heard this on the radio into work this morning. Apparently the company does not sell their rejects for feed purposes, so they aren't exactly sure how a truck would have come across so many destined for cow feed. I think there's a fat f**ker somewhere who just doesn't like the red ones and he's been selling them off.

Now I know why there has been a huge surge of Cows with Diabetes. This is a growth industry and another reason we have also seen an ant explosion in the pastures as the cattle are pissing sugar which the ants love.

Transporting skittles on a flatbed truck. What could possibly go wrong?

Negative ghost rider. A green apple skittle tastes exactly like what a stinkbug smells like.

In Pennsylvania, they mix candy bars from Hershey in feed.

Cows will definitely eat hardware - and they can get what is called "hardware disease." They will eat discharged shotgun shells.

quote:

Hardware disease is a common term for bovine traumatic reticuloperitonitis. It is usually caused by the ingestion of a sharp, metallic object. These pieces of metal settle in the reticulum, and can irritate or penetrate the lining. It is most common in dairy cattle, but is occasionally seen in beef cattle.
