When Neil Armstrong first stepped out on to the moon he uttered those iconic words, “One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” When asked why he said those words he remarked that he felt it was appropriate given that his one small step represented the efforts of so many people, most he didn’t know, that allowed him to make that historic step.
Recently I was given the opportunity to visit a harvester that was a friend and a supplier for 30 years, until four years ago when his establishment was taken off my approved supplier list. The removal of his plant was based on an audit I did where I sighted issues with heavy tag on animals, bad hide removal practices and a lack of thermal interventions. Basically, the absence of all the tools we now know are effective in eliminating pathogenic bacteria.
