A huge amount of food is wasted in recalls due salmonella and e.coli contamination. Thousands of turkeys were bred, fed, raised and slaughtered only to be thrown away. So, in addition to the vast amounts of GHGs they produced while they live, they will produce yet more as their corpses rot in landfills. https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/medical/deadly-salmonella-outbreak-forces-usda-to-recall-raw-turkey/ar-BBPLtIx?OCID=ansmsnnews11

Let us all have a more compassionate and sustainable thanksgiving and holiday by choosing plant foods.
