Lee, I agree that this article goes far far overboard.
The problem is finding what truth might be in there.
The article is a crusade against all animal products it seems.

The facts on Mad Cow itself, seem more reasonable.
Reading lots of other stuff on this subject, it seems we do have lax standards in the US. and after banning shipments of Canadian beef into the US on the basis of a single cow, a cow that originally came frm the US to Canada in the first place, and now the USDA is saying beef is safe.

Well what is one supposed to assume.
1) They were telling lies about the safety of Canadian Beef?
2) They are telling the truth about US beef now?

Which way is it cause one is surely a big FN fat lie.
Add in the fact that the US is the only country that still allows ground up sheep parts to be fed to cows and the rampant deer wasting disease that is going around in Wisconsin and other states, and the fact that we test so so few animals and we are supposed to believe threre is no cause for concern when one way or another thaey are big FN liars!

Taking that into consideration, what do you think?
