The article wraps up with this quote

 

Despite the financial and reputational dangers, the food industry largely backs rigorous recalls as a means of sniffing out the “bad apples” who “affect the reputation of an entire sector,” said Charlebois. “Every single recall related to the livestock industry builds a case for vegetarianism.”

 

Seems somebody forgot the recall of the romaine and the spinach and the melons and so forth. Do those recalls make the case for becoming carnivorous?
