I was about to start the Atkins diet. Guess I'll go heavy on chicken and turkey.

How can anybody be so stupid as to use sheep parts? What the heck is a matter with these people?

How can anybody be so stupid as to use sheep parts? What the heck is a matter with these people? Since sheep offal is banned (I believe) in the US as feed, it's cheap, so naturally a dodgy feed company would like to get their hands on it.
Just a guess at what happened.

Strictly speaking, it's really the burger that poses the problem. Greater chance of brain or spinal bits showing up in that than say a steak, which isn't ground up.

An anonymous official with no specific information. Yeah, this is reliable.

Our beef system should be more compartmentalized and localized so the whole country isn't screwed by the action of an idiot or two.

An unnamed shemale industry official from an unnamed source told an unnamed reporterette from a møøse-limb news agency that an unknown number of mad-cow cases were found in Washington... just before Christmas vacation....
Some Egg Nog at that party, eh?
