I watched "The Mad Cowboy" tonight and was quite impressed with this former Montana cattleman who becomes a vegan and goes on to Washington, DC, to speak up for farm animals and the need for Americans to do away with industrialized farming and to teach us about the dangers of eating meat. Let me know what you think about this by voting in my poll at peoplepowergranny.blogspot.com. Maybe you can skip a burger tomorrow.

It was only a matter of time.

(When I last checked) our meat industry was still feeding animal by-products to herbiverous animals to pack on the weight by upping the protien content. Those by-products included spinal matter from cows where prions are thought to be found. That isn't even counting the byproducts from goats and sheep who have high incidence of scrapie which is not dis-similar to Mad Cow.

The whole thing isn't that much different ethically than lacing milk with melamine to get the protien measure up.
