I'm beginning to wonder if all these animal product scares are the covert work of animal rights groups! I mean REALLY! How long has the human race been eating animals ( and milk)? Why haven't we all died yet?!

I'm a believer. My kid had the worst cows dairy intolerance even in infancy. She used to scream her head off, almost exactly 48 hours after I'd ingest any cows product (protein, whey, casein, milk, ice cream, cheese, you name it). It would fully digest into my system then come into her through my milk.

Buy organic in this case. It's worth the extra $.

I believe that we should attack the BSE problem like the Japanese have: let's just go ahead and test the animals at slaughter, find out where the problems are and clear it up now.

The British experience shows with BSE that the longer we wait, the more expensive it can get to fix the problem. They ended up having to destroy millions of animals in their effort to eradicate the disease. I believe that waiting will only cost us more money than tackling the problem head-on now.

has not detected prions in milk itself, because it is difficult to analyse for the abnormal proteins

So - prions NOT detected in milk would be a more accurate title

I'm getting sick of this. There is a correlation between prions and scapie, but no causative evidence. The prion theory - like Global warming - is just one more piece of evidence-less superscience for the new Millenium.

I'm beginning to think there is nothing we can eat or drink anymore that is safe.
