Yeah, and now it's crossed over to pork. Man, I gotta have my meat, and I don't consider tofu as the other other white meat.

Have a feelin both have been here a while.

i stopped eating beef and pork 5 years ago, it was hard as hell. i still crave a bacon double cheeseburger from time to time but turkey burgers are a pretty good substitute.

Well if its crossed over to pork it wont be long till it crosses over to us humans then.....

Hopefully they get back with the results on the pigs soon.

It's been projected that the mortality rate for H5N1 influenza in humans is 75%. This is something to watch.

Wonder how many cases China has that we don't know about. Wouldn't be the first time they denied a problem!

Ahhh, steak is always wonderful...

Now chicken? Well, that just scares me.

Just wait till it spreads to cats and dogs, or something afects cats and dogs.

i know this may come off as crap... but didn't that john titor guy say something like don't eat meat of animals that are fed their own kind?

PIG POX! We have pigs infected now too.

Next will be poisoned fish. Whoops, got that too.

ummm did you guys notice my submission?

a strain of the Avian Flu was found in Delaware USA.

now I am getting worried, am I going to have look for tofu recipes? what am I gonna eat????

And Chronic Wasting Disease in Elk and Deer, otherwise known as transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE). It's similar to BSE in cows and Scrapie in Sheep.

even more so now, I wonder why Bush issued an executive order to protect our food supply from terrorism?

perhaps this will be our future and somehow claims will be made that terrorists are behind the rash of animal diseases.

i also wonder if perhaps the government could be testing different viruses to see its effects for some evil plot or perhaps like population control?

what about rabbits... is there anything bad in rabbits? granted, there is no protein in them... but that's what peanuts are for.

Actually, yes. This past summer 3 men contracted rabbit Fever (tularemia). They caught it after running over a rabbits nest while mowing the lawn.

oh no! what else is going on "out there"?

I don't know if I can be a vegetarian
