      Alabama cow tests positive for mad cow disease

      Posted by Jeff from MSNBC

      The animal was a beef cow but hadn’t entered the food supply for people or animals, said the department’s chief veterinarian, John Clifford. "Which means the citizens of Alabama — and the nation — have no reason to believe their food supply from cattle is unsafe. It’s just as safe as it was yesterday," Alabama Health Officer Dr. Donald Williamson told a news conference on Monday. Comments like this crack me up. Seems like there isn't much reason to believe your food supply of beef is safe or sustainable for that matter.
