        I mean, we’re doing better than basically every other 1st world country, and those that are beating us don’t have big livestock industries.

          You must have a very unusual definition of first world.

            The U.S. has to pretend that they don’t exist because it would cause them to face a lot of big issues otherwise.

        “Bang on in the middle” of the legend, but not of the data. And below the middle of the legend, actually. The bottom half of the legend covers 0 - 50 while the top half covers 50 - 200+. The US is at 31 mg/kg as of 2020

            It’s impossible to use 0 unless you just want to let animals die from and spread infections. We live in a world in which bacteria and animals have been in an evolutionary arms race for a billion years

              I feel like we shouldn’t be eating meat if we have to jump through so much shit to “make it work”. Putting increasing your tolerance to antibiotics on the top of the cake and it’s a no go for health reasons alone.

        Ah - that was why I was so confused. Canada, for example, limits the growth hormone in dairy cattle while the US does not.
