It would be too expensive and would take too much time. It supposes also a whole system of tracability, which does not exists yet in USA.
In france, controls are done much more frequently, but you cannot check each cow each day.
Don't know if easy-and-quick tests (like "cow is pregnant") exist.

Originally posted by SexyAries Im on the Atkins diet so mostly i eat meat. It doesnt fill you up as much but it gets you skinny! and hey as long as the animal isnt getting slaughtered in front of me or by me i dont really care.

that diet is sooooo bad for u in the long term. ur body doesn't need that much protien that ur obtaining now, and plus, u know why ur losing weight with too much protein? because if u eat a lot of it, ur lose sooooo much water from ur body, which is really bad. and instead of water the stomach is getting packed with protein and in the long term losing that much water is really harmful.....so that diet is ok in the short term, but believe me not good at the end......the best diet is to get balanced nutrition which is about 60% carbs, not more than 20% meat and and 10-20% fats.....and EXERCISE!!!!! that's the key!

ummm I never crave meat. For me it was just something that my body needed when i was young to build up the bones, now I've got my other ways of keeping my bones strong and healthy!

Just curious.....Is anyone here a vegetarian?

I've also been a vegie for a year and a half now and my stomach feels a lot lighter.

I agree with people who said that we're meant to eat meat, however due to commercialization of practically everything including the beef and poultry industry, I don't think it's safe to eat meat.

Mad Cow has been a problem in Europe and the US (but the US has hid it for many years) it's a terrible disease (CJD in humans) being paraniod from it is a big part of why I'm a vegie.

You can't. From the literature I've read (and I've done a good amount of research into this over the course of two years) The prions are mainly located in the brain, and deteriorate the brain gradually. So: you'll either see actual symptoms from the cow (in which case I hope the discrd the body) HOWEVER the disease takes a course of months and/or years to develop (it gradually makes holes in the brain, from the faulty folding of the protien, hence prion) so the cows appear "normal" in which case, you'll need to do a biopsy to find out, and I doubt they do biopsies on every single cow.

do you know how this disease advances? they ground up the unused cow parts and feed them back to the cows!

for the vegie people out there, or those planning to become vegie, Boca Burgers is a lifesaver. They taste almost like Burger King burgers, and the texture is pretty realistic too.

I have nothing against vegetarians. Let them eat what they like.

I just can't stand it when they try to make you feel bad for not following their practice.

And c'mon dammit, we're omnivores!
