Dark Rumors Swirl as Boar's Head Plans to Reopen Notoriously Disgusting Meat Processing Plant

futurism.com Unknown 2025-08-10 13:00:43

Over a year after a deadly bacterial outbreak forced a Boar's Head deli meat factory in Virginia to shutter indefinitely, the facility is reportedly set to reopen — but that doesn't mean they've cleaned up their act. Starting in May of last year, a number of people throughout the middle- and eastern-US began falling ill with symptoms eerily similar to the flu.

Our findings showed a trivial to small reduction in body weight for all diet strategies compared with ad-libitum, and trivial reductions for ADF compared with CER, TRE, and WDF. These associations, however, were only significant among comparisons with ad-libitum diet in moderate-to-long term follow-up durations of at least 24 weeks. ADF

2025 Subaru WRX tS review: A scalpel-sharp chassis lets this car dance

The Subaru WRX has always been the equivalent of an automotive shrug. Not because it lacks character but because it simply doesn't care what others think. It's a punk rock band with enough talent to fill stadiums but band members who don't seem to care about chasing fame. And the STI versions of yesteryear proved so talented that fame chased them. For 2025, Subaru updated the WRX to now include the tS, which at first glance appears to be the same flannel-wearing street fighter. But looks can be
