00:02:19 - 00:02:31 | Speaker 6:

All right, it's Mojo in the morning. Shannon just brought up something, and I want to get right into this to start. Shannon just said that she's thinking about becoming a pescatarian. Is that right? Like how Cav used to be?

00:02:31 - 00:02:34 | Speaker 4:

Oh, that's right. I forgot you used to be Presbyterian.

00:02:34 - 00:02:35 | Speaker 6:

Presbyterian, yeah.

00:02:35 - 00:03:00 | Speaker 4:

One with the fish. Okay, so I have always eaten meat. I like eating meat. But since this radio station moved to Eastern Market, we moved from Farmington Hills, Michigan, to Eastern Market. And if you are unaware or have not yet heard us mention this, We are surrounded by slaughterhouses, meat markets, whatever you want to call them.

00:03:00 - 00:03:02 | Speaker 3:

I didn't realize that slaughterhouses were down here.

00:03:02 - 00:03:18 | Speaker 4:

Oh, right across the street is probably the biggest one. And it has really made me think about what I am putting into my body and really is making me think about every time I eat meat. I just am struggling because...

00:03:18 - 00:03:20 | Speaker 6:

Well, can you explain what we see?

00:03:20 - 00:04:47 | Speaker 4:

Every morning when we come in and the earlier you come in, you guys know this, the worse it is. You follow in all of the trucks with the live animals. So I'll come in and like this morning, for example, I followed a truck that I'm pretty sure it was cows. And so you can smell them and hear them and see them through the slats of the truck. And then they pull up at this door right here. And then the truck is like backing up. And I tried, yeah, I try to walk into the station with my, I keep my head down and my eyes down so I don't see them. But this is every day, all day. And then sometimes during the show, we see them disposing of the carcasses, which is the most disgusting word. But I have never actually taken the time to sit down and think about the process of what I am eating. and my sister is vegan and so she always is like watch this watch this read this book and i won't do it because i know myself if i actually really thought about it i would absolutely be a vegetarian or i like fish pescatarian and so now i i am struggling to eat meat i am obsessed with chomps you guys know chomps are my snack of choice here during the show i cannot even think about eating a chomp like a slim jim basically a healthier slim jim yeah i can't do it yeah but honestly

00:04:47 - 00:04:59 | Speaker 3:

as somebody who just tried to buy a whole bunch of meat sticks i think you're saving yourself a lot of money and i think you're looking the wrong way they're expensive i think that well all meat right now is so expensive i think you should look at it that way i don't think this

00:05:00 - 00:05:26 | Speaker 4:

should be about the animals and the sadness it should be girl math i love going to comerica and having a hot dog west west barbecued burgers the other night and we're sitting at the kitchen table i took two bites i thought about the truck that i had followed into work that morning and i looked at him i go i can't i actually can't do it because i can't eat it and actually the because i'm seeing the animals before they go in i'm like in five minutes you're not going to be

00:05:26 - 00:05:48 | Speaker 1:

here anymore and they're going save me and you're not mentioning that by the time that we are leaving our show at uh noon or one o'clock we see these guys throwing the dead carcasses i know but i'm saying it's just it's following them in is one thing seeing them oh that's great with beautiful little animals but when you see them throw that has to be illegal them throwing these dead carcasses

00:05:48 - 00:05:52 | Speaker 3:

they're also throwing them like frisbees too you just see them like splay out and like

00:05:52 - 00:05:54 | Speaker 4:

into the dumpster.

00:05:54 - 00:05:55 | Speaker 1:

She wanted to have a piece of my meat.

00:05:55 - 00:06:01 | Speaker 4:

I love everything about this new studio and station except for that. It's really bad.

00:06:01 - 00:06:08 | Speaker 3:

I knew that Eastern Market was a huge farmer's market. If you've never been here, it's massive in the summer.

00:06:09 - 00:06:12 | Speaker 1:

I didn't know. I thought it was a vegetable market or flowers, too.

00:06:12 - 00:06:18 | Speaker 3:

Well, it is. It's all of it. You knew it was a farmer's market? That's what a farmer's market is.

00:06:18 - 00:06:22 | Speaker 1:

No, I thought it was just flowers and things.

00:06:22 - 00:06:34 | Speaker 4:

Farmer's market is flowers and baked goods and vegetables and fruits. That's what I'm saying. It's all of the things. I have never been to a farmer's market where you choose a live animal and they go in the back and kill it.

00:06:34 - 00:06:42 | Speaker 3:

That's my point. I knew Easter market was this massive farmer's market and I knew that they had stores here, but I had no idea that it was like slaughterhouses.

00:06:44 - 00:07:10 | Speaker 2:

So your original question of what made you become a pescetarian or give up your food, It is literally what you said about your sister sending videos and movies. When I made my decision, the same guy that Megan just mentioned, that movie Food Inc., which is the same guy that did Supersize Me, that McDonald's movie, he made a movie called What the Health. I watched that movie, and literally, as the credits rolled, I made the decision to give up meat, and it was seven, eight years before I ate it again.

00:07:10 - 00:07:17 | Speaker 3:

I was vegan for about two years, and I think What the Health is great, and I think Food Inc. is great, but here's the whole Supersize Me.

00:07:17 - 00:07:24 | Speaker 4:

he lied throughout that entire thing but we don't have to and for years i have said i'm not watching

00:07:24 - 00:07:39 | Speaker 3:

it because i like no i like a steak i like there was bacon no i'd rather watch a burger king whopper commercial i agree there was one thing about cows and antibiotics and i was like oh i'm never eating meat again then it took two years and i went back to me i can see out of the window

00:07:39 - 00:07:45 | Speaker 1:

right there i just saw one of those one of the big trucks i just saw one yeah i'm cute should we

00:07:45 - 00:07:48 | Speaker 2:

posted on our story? Not tabs. Not the tabs.

00:07:50 - 00:07:51 | Speaker 1:

Goodbye, guys.

00:07:51 - 00:08:21 | Speaker 4:

It makes me so sad. Okay. Also, here's something else that just recently happened. The week before last, I follow in one of the trucks. I don't know what the heck it was. Probably goats that morning. Oh, really? Then I have to take Smith on a field trip to Bower's Farm like a couple of hours later. And we're playing with all these baby goats. And I said to the lady who was taking us on the tour, I'm like, like see this is what i see in the morning but they're about they're about on their way out

00:08:21 - 00:08:27 | Speaker 1:

taking their final bow yeah it's such a bad thing isn't it i don't think that farm does that but

00:08:27 - 00:08:32 | Speaker 4:

i'm just saying it was weird to you know see what i saw in the morning and then have to go play with

00:08:32 - 00:09:00 | Speaker 1:

all the baby goats and cows and pigs later that day 844 mojo live 844-665-6548 what made you give up eating meat if you're like one of these people or stopped eating something. Because I have never had a beet salad since I saw a guy with the biggest hairy eyebrows ever cutting up a beet salad one day and I saw him and I saw the hair in dandruff off of his hairy eyebrows fall onto it.

00:09:00 - 00:09:02 | Speaker 2:

Dandruff in the eyebrows is crazy.

00:09:02 - 00:09:15 | Speaker 1:

So I always order Greek salads with no beets. Everybody always wonders, why do you have no beets on there? No beets because Because I don't want a hairy eyebrow in my salad. You ever had that happen to you where you go to a restaurant, too, and you find something in your food? You just can't go back?

00:09:16 - 00:09:26 | Speaker 4:

I told you the story about the guy I saw sweating over the stove. He was flipping the burgers, and I will never, ever go back to that place ever again. Yeah, but some places I'm like, Ed's flavor.

00:09:27 - 00:09:27 | Speaker 1:

Ew.

00:09:27 - 00:09:30 | Speaker 3:

You know what I mean? Some places shouldn't be clean.

00:09:30 - 00:09:32 | Speaker 4:

Right off his forehead into the burgers. Yeah.

00:09:32 - 00:09:34 | Speaker 3:

I think diners should not be clean.

00:09:34 - 00:09:41 | Speaker 1:

Diners have to be. Well, I don't want them to clean the griddle. But I don't want their body fluids on top of my stuff.

00:09:41 - 00:09:44 | Speaker 3:

There are certain places that if it's clean, I don't want to eat there.

00:09:44 - 00:09:45 | Speaker 1:

Mojo in the morning. Hello.

00:09:46 - 00:09:47 | Speaker 3:

Good morning.

00:09:48 - 00:09:49 | Speaker 1:

Hi. Who's this?

00:09:50 - 00:09:52 | Speaker 3:

This is Lena from Muskegon.

00:09:52 - 00:09:56 | Speaker 1:

Hey, Lena from Muskegon is on with us today. What's going on, Lena?

00:09:58 - 00:09:59 | Speaker 3:

Yesterday, actually.

00:10:00 - 00:10:11 | Speaker 6:

my job i was eating our chicken tenders that are new on our menu um and they served them to me raw and i ate an entire one so now i don't think i'm gonna eat chicken anymore although chicken tenders

00:10:11 - 00:10:18 | Speaker 2:

aren't they already cooked and you're just heating them up um yes but they were still raw really

00:10:18 - 00:10:29 | Speaker 7:

when you have a grizzly piece of chicken it takes me a second to eat another piece if it's well i don't know that's the only word i can think of like anything that's cold inside sometimes too

00:10:29 - 00:10:39 | Speaker 2:

Like if it was frozen ahead of time and it's cold, you don't want to eat it. I get that. But if it's still already cooked, like the chicken tender, if it's raw chicken, I don't want it. What's up, Hannah?

00:10:40 - 00:10:41 | Speaker 5:

Hi, good morning. How are you?

00:10:42 - 00:10:46 | Speaker 2:

Good morning. We're doing okay. We're actually just hanging here in the slaughterhouse. What's going on?

00:10:47 - 00:11:00 | Speaker 5:

I recently found this out, but you know the Fair Life protein shakes? Yeah. the process of making those, they take the cow face while the cow's still alive. Nope, I can't.

00:11:00 - 00:11:01 | Speaker 6:

And they apply.

00:11:04 - 00:11:13 | Speaker 2:

How do you know this stuff? By the way, I don't want to get sued like Oprah got sued way back when she started putting out a bunch of false facts. They do what?

00:11:13 - 00:11:16 | Speaker 5:

Well, it's just not a pretty process. So maybe stay away from those.

00:11:16 - 00:11:23 | Speaker 2:

Do they squeeze its balls and that's how they get it out? Or what's the story? Although a cow doesn't have balls.

00:11:23 - 00:11:27 | Speaker 6:

I don't want to hear it. No, they kind of melt the face off. And then they pure it off.

00:11:27 - 00:11:39 | Speaker 2:

Oh, shit. Allegedly. Delicious. That's where they get the protein from. They melt the face off. Jonathan, what's going on? It's Mojo in the Morning. Hi. You still said it out loud. Hi. How's it going? What's up, buddy?

00:11:41 - 00:11:58 | Speaker 3:

Hey, you know, there's like, I live in Ohio, kind of a rural area in Ohio. And there are a lot of areas. I mean, you can pick farmers, but have the cows raised humanely. and take it to a butcher that you know is done in a more humane way. It's not all the factory farms and things like that where you hear all the horror stories.

00:11:58 - 00:12:12 | Speaker 2:

No, I think the problem is we're seeing the abundance of animals being killed. I get it. I understand that. I mean, I just don't want to know where my stuff comes from. And I love the American farmer as long as he doesn't work in my neighborhood.

00:12:12 - 00:12:15 | Speaker 7:

I just don't want to see the process, and we're seeing the process every day.

00:12:15 - 00:12:17 | Speaker 2:

It's bad. Ignorance is delicious.

00:12:17 - 00:12:18 | Speaker 7:

Yes. Yes.

00:12:18 - 00:12:30 | Speaker 2:

Yeah. Yes. Listen, I'll eat whatever you farm as long as I don't have to actually see the process of, what do they call it, making the sausage? I don't want to actually. Yeah.

00:12:31 - 00:12:31 | Speaker 3:

Fair enough.

00:12:32 - 00:12:32 | Speaker 2:

All right.

00:12:33 - 00:12:44 | Speaker 3:

Yeah. You think on the flip side of that, look at how some of the vegetables and the things that are healthy are raised. I mean, the sprays and the. Yeah. That's true. Oh, yeah. Give me the chemicals. Give me the GMOs.

00:12:44 - 00:12:53 | Speaker 2:

That is right. uh but i don't hear it squealing when it dies the the rutabaga um the rutabaga where'd you pull

00:12:53 - 00:12:59 | Speaker 4:

rutabaga from i don't know i will take a pesticide over a worm in my food any day of the week hold

00:12:59 - 00:13:07 | Speaker 2:

on a second jessica are you there yes i'm here hi what's going on uh first time caller i love you

00:13:07 - 00:13:39 | Speaker 6:

I'm a STEM plus teacher in my school district, so I teach kids kindergarten through fifth grade. And we just hatched baby chicks. And coincidentally, I had, like, some kids who were awarded lunch with the teachers. I had about ten kids in my classroom, and they're all holding the baby chicks. And we realized that the lunch to the day was grilled chicken sandwiches. So we all just got very easy, and, like, half the kids screamed. And it was horrifying, but also hilarious. Oh, God. That's awesome.

00:13:42 - 00:13:46 | Speaker 2:

Hold on. Alicia will never eat salmon again. Why is that, Alicia?

00:13:46 - 00:13:57 | Speaker 4:

Oh, don't tell me. Well, I brought pre-cooked salmon, and I put it in my refrigerator. Before I even opened it, I opened the package, and there was a white worm wiggling around in the package.

00:13:57 - 00:13:57 | Speaker 2:

A worm.

00:13:59 - 00:14:01 | Speaker 4:

Alicia saw it. Oh, yuck.

00:14:02 - 00:14:03 | Speaker 2:

Oh, my God.

00:14:03 - 00:14:05 | Speaker 4:

Nothing like being a jiggly worm.

00:14:05 - 00:14:17 | Speaker 2:

That's a delicacy in some countries. Oh, my God. Abby says that she can never, ever, ever eat this again because your mother-in-law's a mortician, and what happened?

00:14:18 - 00:14:25 | Speaker 5:

Yeah, my mother-in-law is a mortician, and she says when they cremate the body, it smells like the flame-boiled cheeseburgers at Burger King.

00:14:25 - 00:14:49 | Speaker 2:

Oh, no. I would love that. I would love that. That's such a good smell. Really? Really? Yes, it's disgusting. Now that actually makes me want to be a mortician, because I actually do love that smell. That's actually not bad. Yeah, that's great. I know, but I can never eat it. That's crazy. Is there, wait, is there a Burger King, like, right next door? And it's flame broiled, baby. Okay. No. That's just what it smells like.

00:14:49 - 00:14:52 | Speaker 3:

That just makes me think, wow, Burger King must be fresh.

00:14:52 - 00:14:59 | Speaker 2:

Yeah. Or their body must be, too. Who knows? I'm in your way.
