Sad thing is everyone here is likely to end up with CJD.

Human form of mad cow.

Once you get it it's 100% fatal. The gubment has no clue how much tainted meat you need to eat to get it and the incubation period is up to 30 years until it kicks in. You get it today and up to 30 years from now you start acting like an alzheimer's patient.

Until 89 mad cows were killed and fed to pigs. Yeah, rich, but not smooth.
So any pork or beef from 84-89 is likely tainted. And we have no idea how much it takes to infect a person.

Soooooooo...As adults we can now avoid such things but who knows if it even matters.

"That poor KCMizzou, got the old-timers at 58. You believe that?

"Shame. Been happening a lot lately. Feel sorry for 'em."

Fun stuff to think about during the morning drive to work...

Damn, I never figured you for a tin-foil hat type.

It's not Aliens searching for the Ark in my arse, it's biology.

Factual statements, scarry disease. :shake:

Hey Brad, assuming you're right... the bright side for me, is that I won't know WTF you're talking about anyway.

I'll take my steak medium rare, please.

I got a freezer full of steaks, briskits,roast,hamburger and probably 50 lbs of sausage....I guess I will just throw it out!
Better yet I think I will continue to enjoy my beef and pork! Homegrown are the best!!

The great thing about alzheimer's is you get to meet someone new every day!

They better not cut back on breeding sheep! Lamb is some of the best meat in the world!

As for cows...hamburgers and shredded beef are pretty good. I think that's it unless I'm forgetting--oh wait! STEAKS! Big bloody steaks cut right off a walking cow and BBQ'ed to perfection! So yeah...may not be as good as lamb, but still pretty damn good. Plus, I wouldn't say anything against beef seeing as how my second meat of choice is pork...and those damn animals smell just as bad when ya drive by 'em.

Only way to go. I'd buy from you if'n I could.

Pisses me off the local guys are fading fast. 10 years ago I had 3 cousins farming pigs.

Now they still do, but pretty much only enough for them to eat and not as a business...

You could send some my way since I'm poor and only have $1.26 in my bank account now :( Damn losing my job screwd me over big time!

I'm sorry to say that I'm feeling pretty poor these days to. I think I might just have to keep what I have however if any of you are wanting a good butcher beef I can point you in the right direction. Of coruse you will need to come and pick it up...I'm starting to run low on pork so I will be looking for a pig to butcher in the next month or two....I butchered 2 for myself last Aug and am now running pretty low...to bad hog farmer lives so far away!

I had a buffalo burger for the first time a few months ago. It wasn't as "gamey" as everyone describes it as ... wasn't bad, wasn't spectacular either.

I just can't see McDonald's loading up on kangaroo burgers anytime soon. That'd be a lot of kangaroos to kill.

they jump like frogs
should taste like frog legs

Marsupials taste like chicken.

Well, if they'd put meat in their burgers it would be an improvement - even possum might make their burgers delicious.
