Don't Flush Brains Down the Drain

Not sure what I think about this: the menu was sure different when I was a kid. Nowadays it's nearly impossible to find any of the so-called "specific risk materials" available for human consumption. Animal feeds ... well, why the Hel are we feeding ruminants meat products anyway?

The U.S. Department of Agriculture has a plan for cattle brains and other remains that may carry deadly mad cow disease. It wants to turn them into a bio-based source of energy.

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
