Unwanted helpings of antibiotics with meat servings are a worry for many consumers even though a very simple, reliable and cheap way to keep such ingredients off the table is available: Just stop eating meat.

That's good for human health, a blessing for animals and gives nature a much deserved break.

Of course, Big Meat, which in the US is just caught up in a fight against the Meatless Monday-movement, will not take kindly to such a way of defusing the superbug-threat, but the customer is king...
