I was in the UK in the aftermath of the first major Mad Cow outbreak, and it was basically thought that the UK and maybe all of European beef industry was over for awhile. Restaurants served kangaroo instead, which is good! Hopefully this is just
an isolated thing.
France's agriculture ministry confirmed on Thursday that a case of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), also known as mad cow disease, had been discovered in the northeastern region of Ardennes.
