Does anyone worry about Mad Cow Disease?

Only when I watch Boston Legal and see Denny Crane.

I don't really worry about it but after the last scare I switched to ground turkey and I use that for everything now(tacos, meatballs, burgers, etc)We all like it and it's healthier so that's a bonus.Now if bird flu becomes an issue, I'm in trouble

When news of it hit Europe, I stopped buying it here in the US and haven't eaten it or served it to my family since.



And the US just cut funding for testing of beef in this country (thanks, Bush administration) - I guess they think it's more important to protect the Beef Industry rather than protect the American citizens.

We don't eat beef. I wish we didn't eat meat of any kind, but DH is having a problem getting over that hump. I could never eat meat again and be very happy. In fact, my favorite lunch right now is a wheat pita stuffed with lettuce, tofurkey and soy cheese.

Well, if it gets into our food supply, it will take many years before the first case develops. So, whoever is responsible for cutbacks and not caring won't be around to take the blame.

Bah. I voted wrong and hit the send button before I could take it back. I was the 69th person to vote No We Don't Worry About Meat instead of voting for We Don't Eat Meat.

Heh heh. 69.


We don't eat meat. That is, we do not consume animal flesh at home. Anything else is fair game.
