Subject: beef, pork & lamb

    Hearing the people that are suppose to protect us (FDA & USDA) from 
dangerous food is still allowing animal byproducts such as blood or any other 
byproduct to be put in livestock feed is disappointing to me. After seeing 
what happened in the UK with "Mad Cow" you're still allowing the ranchers & 
consumers to be exposed to slaughtering their herds & or killing the people 
that eat this tainted food due to unsafe livestock feed.
To assure the safety of my eight member family. We will NOT be eating beef, 
pork or lamb until all animal byproducts are removed from the feed given to 
the livestock throughout the United States of America. 
I hope the lobbyist that pad your pockets from the companies that manufacture 
feed for our livestock can support the ranchers in this country. Because more 
& more families such as ours will stop eating food we cannot be assured is 
safe from dangerous proteins, virus' & germs that can cripple or kill us.
Shame on you for selling out to the big money companies while knowing the 
danger you're putting us in.
Cattle, pigs & sheep are vegetarians, lets keep it that way! Don't force 
cannibalism on our livestock supply in America. 
You people are Sick for condoning this action!
