*SIGH* I don't eat the brains. I cook my beef before eating. I don't believe disease jumps the species barrier that easy. The limited incidence suggests a more complete study of the epidimiology is needed.

OK, so people can come up with a lot of objections to my reasons. But frankly, I don't think there's a lot of good science behind the connection between BSE and variant CJD.

It's right up there with EMF health risks.
