with a stranger, knowing that you risk possibly being infected with a incurable, life-threatening disease?
Well......Mad Cow Disease is incurable and delivers a painful certain death to you if you become infected...
mad cow disease, a mysterious disease that is not destroyed by cooking and has been fatal. You could ingest "prions" (abnormal proteins) by eating even a well-done rib roast. These prions infiltrate your brain, perforate it with holes, and cause death in a few years’ time.

Eating one hamburger from a fast food joint is like having unprotected sex with as many as 1000 strangers.
The ground beef in one hamburger can have pieces from as many as 1000 cows.
And guess what....some of those cows are infected with Mad Cow Disease......in fact mostly likely a lot more of them are infected with Mad Cow Disease than anyone is letting on....and those infected cows are being ground up and put into our food supply.
Mad cow disease is not destroyed by cooking. It's not a bacteria or a virus. It's actually a self-replicating structural anomaly that can pass from cows to humans even if the beef is cooked. All that's necessary for cross-contamination is that a little bit of brain matter or spinal cord matter gets mixed into the beef. Do you think that happens at beef slaughterhouses? Of course it does. Routinely, in fact.

Think about it...how many times have you have put on a condom (or asked your partner to put one on) to protect yourself during sex...have many times have you NOT wanted to put the condom on but did anyway because you value your life and you did not want to contract a deadly disease......Well you need to start thinking about the meat you eat in the same way. ..................... Do you know where that meat has been? ..............................Do you know for sure that it doesn’t have an incurable disease? If you are not sure...is it worth the risk?
I know that it is difficult to accept the reality that our government and corporations would actually knowingly allow something as terrifying as Mad Cow Disease into our food supply...but it is true....and they sooner we accept this fact ...the better chance we have of PROCTECTING ourselves and staying ALIVE.
Frankly we need to know about each piece of meat BEFORE we eat it, to fully protect ourselves...This is hard to do, its hard to change lifestyles.
You might think this is a ridiculous way to look at the topic of Mad Cow Disease...still I hope this analogy stays in your mind: Eating meat that you are not certain is disease-free, is like having sex without a condom with as many as 1000 strangers.
