It's the USDA's definition of 100% pure beef that is at fault. They use our
tax dollars to protect agrobiz and the meat industry, not us.

Coincidently, I watched 'Food, Inc' the other night which featured an
interview with Eldon Roth, the owner of BPI. He was touting how safe the
process was and bragging he had licked the whole e-coli 'thing'.

Good for a laugh as I had read the NY Times article a few days before that.
