Mad cow can stick around!
Evidently this research indicates that you could be infected with mad cow for over 50 years before symptoms become evident! And things like blood transfusions could potentially spread it...
Yikes! http://www.smh.com.au/news/world/human-mad-cow-infection-could-hide-for-50-years/2006/06/23/1150845378945.html

I'm switching . . .
I'm switching to a chocolate only diet so I can avoid the dangers of mad cow disease and avian flu.

Why worry with such trivial things? No one gets out of this alive. Live and let live. Pass me another filet mignon, please.

Trust me. By the time your brain turns into swiss cheese, I seriously doubt you feel or think much. When symptoms show up, you are pretty much a shell of your former self.

This is one of the scariest diseases out there. The guy who explained it won the Nobel prize, and was considered an absolute kook until others confirmed his findings. It is not caused by a bacteria or a virus, there is not even the glimmering of an idea for a treatment, and it has an absolutely zero survival rate.
It's a good thing that it is very difficult to acquire.

Stay away from nervous tissue and you're probably safe.
Having said that, I grew-up eating the brains of game prepared in a variety of tasty dishes. As kid, it was a rite of passage to eat the brain of the animal you killed, probably akin to the New Guinean headhunter eating the brain of the vanquished. I wonder how primitive is the ritual consumption of the brain, heart, kidney, liver and blood of the game killed by the new hunter. I have never heard of ritual consumption of skeletal muscle tissue, have you? I think the transference of the ritual from game harvest to destruction of a feared human enemy is a step easily taken, especially in a protein-poor society. Musingly yours, Bot |

Yeah, ate alot of head cheese growing up. Love that stuff on sandwiches. Guess I will find out if I had one head cheese sandwich too many in the future.

Seriously... I'm not sweating the mad cow thing, or the avian flu, or any of that.... Something is going to kill me eventually... "No one gets out of here alive", right?.... I refuse to go through life constantly worrying about such tings.. So I'm going to eat what I want (using common sense, of course), and if it's my time to go, it's my time to go. Mike

Mountain oysters, really fatty. They always show up the "I dare you to eat it dinners."
Seagull tastes like fish. |
