Well folks just gobble up that beef that comes from where there was once a rainforest, it's got extra good karma added for you and your children. And, oh so delicious!

A routine test? You mean it's routine to dose your cattle with many chemicals just to survive mass production in an unnatural habitat, don't you?

Stories like this make you want to stop eating all together. Nothing is safe.. milk, eggs, meat, fruit, veggies, water. Everything is contaminated . Every day a new story comes out about vaccines or OTC drug contaminated...

Mmmmmm, mmmm, mmm, yummy. I'm not a vegetarian at all, but this makes me want to barf. And the beef industry wonders why people are getting turned off. Brazil too, ok I guess it's a global economy now.

So what exactly are the side effects of ingesting too much of this chemical??

Oh look, here you go (I love Wikepedia). Toxicity: The main concern is neurotoxicity, which in most mammalian species may manifest as CNS depression, and consequent ataxia, as might be expected from potentiation of inhibitory GABA-ergic synapses

Any Doctors out there who can explain that. Synapses, that's the brain right?

Ok, more from Wikipedia:

Central nervous system depression or CNS depression refers to physiological depression of the central nervous system that can result in decreased rate of breathing, decreased heart rate, and loss of consciousness possibly leading to coma or death. CNS depression most often results from the use of depressant drugs such as alcohol, opioids, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, general anesthetics, and anticonvulsants such as valproate semisodium used to treat epilepsy. Drug overdose is most often caused by combining two or more depressant drugs although overdose is certainly possible by consuming a large dose of one depressant drug.

Symptoms of CNS depression vary according to the extent to which CNS function is reduced. Symptoms may include:

CNS depression is treated within a hospital setting by maintaining breathing and circulation. Individuals with reduced breathing may be given supplemental oxygen while individuals who are not breathing can be ventilated with bag valve mask ventilation or by mechanical ventilation with a respirator. Sympathomimetic drugs may be used to attempt to stimulate cardiac output in order to maintain circulation. CNS Depression caused by certain drugs may respond to treatment with an antidote.

Glad I'm Hindu and not eat meat. I got nothing against non-vegetarians though. Oh and for the record, cow's milk is not good for us at all. It is not in our biology! Anyone who watches Food Inc. would yack at eating anything processed!

That's not quite my idea of taint.

Well...you get what you pay for....meat from a can is such a f'cked up concept. Sure could go a big fat Katz deli sandwich right now ! Now that's corned beef !!

Why do the cattle ranchers in Texas put up with the U.S. IMPORTING beef from 3ed world countries?

In Texas, there are more cows than people. Why do we need substandard "dog like" meat?

China and Japan can not bury their dead, because of overcrowding and no land to raise cattle. Yet our president insists on $100.00 a pound roast beef from China.

If I were a Texas cattle rancher, I would take that as an INSULT!. I would also be tempted to send him a few hundred pounds of, well lets say, the same stuff he is feeding us!
