You're ok eating steak, but "steer" clear on anything that could have brain mixed in with it.

Actually, they're really not sure... The actually cause of BSE is unknown, but the hypothesis is that prions may be the cause, and they can be transmitted in other tissues as well as just the brain tissue.
