Hold The Beef!

[JeffinDEN]

This was a dairy cow. You don't get steak from a dairy cow.

The meat may get ground up and used as beef bye product in soup, etc. but not as steak.




Beef, it's what's for dinner.

The fact that U.S Agriculture had the audacity to blame Canada is what has a lot of people pissed north of the 49th. Even after mad cow was found in Washington state Canada did not impose a full ban on the U.S. yet the U.S. maintains a ban on Canadian cattle and meat (over 30 month old).

ptbodale- I am not blaming Canada however they did come from canada around the same area in which the cow in Canada had mad cow disease. I really dont care whose fault it was about the blackout, I dont know if they have found the exact cause. However I do believe that it was the news that reported that it COULD HAVE come from a canadien powerplant that blackedout before the US ones did, whether that is true or not I dont know. Back to the mad cow, like I said above the cow did come from canada around the same area as the cow that had mad cow up there. However the farmer in Washington could have fed it banned feed that included backbones and brains.

I bet the fact that he triple posted was Canada's fault also. :P

[ptbodale]

To blame Canada for the mad cow at this early stage of the investigation is absurd. Rather than trying to figure out the situation the U.S. Agriculture people blamed Canada. Just like the black-out. Shoot off your mouth and blame Canada when the investigation found the problems originated in Ohio.

The way the Americans treat Canada is unbelieveable. You treat your friends and neighbours like s**t. In another post somebody asked "why does the world hate the U.S.?" Guess why!

[chrisburns]

It wont be a problem, I dont think that cow was slated for consumer eating anyway, plus it looks as if it could have contracted the disease in Canada seeing how that is where the cow came from, everyone banning American meat is just retarted. That farmer will likely pay a heavy fine since it appears he was using banned feed (US banned in 1997 all feed that had backbones and brains in it) MMMM I think I am going to go have a big juicy burger now

Damn! Ive seen double posts... but a triple post!

What were you smokin? :P

Somebody answer the question before he forgets what it is...

I love my steaks, but how serious is Mad Cow disease? Do you think it will become a major problem here?

"This incident is not terrorist-related," Veneman said Tuesday. "I cannot stress this point strongly enough."

It's a worry that they even had to point that out!
