Meat recalled because of Mad Cow Disease possibility.

A recall on certain 4,000 pounds of beef products has occurred. These beef products were from Fruitland. American Meat. These meats were recalled because they may have been infected with Mad Cow disease also known as bovine spongiform encephalopathy. This causes Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease in humans. Sadly this is fatal disease  that affects the brain and nervous system. In animals it causes the cow to go mad thus the nickname of mad cow disease. It affects the cow nervous system. This can be caused by eating the meat of other cows that was mixed into their grain. This infects humans when humans eat the meat of cow with this deadly disease. It is rarely found in beef. There are many precautions taken so that no one suffers of this disease. So don't stop eating beef, because this rarely occurs. You are more likely to get struck by lightning.
