I have another 'silly' question: what do mad cow disease and
Creutzfeldt Jacob disease have to do with genetically manufactured
foods?
I think nothing, but yeat another article in a local monthly
magazine, is making the connection with the following parahgraph:
"In the 1980s, the British public was repeatedly assured by
government ministers that there was nothing unsafe about Britain's
food. The subsequent outbreak of mad cow disease and its leap to
humans in the form of the deadly Creutzfeldt Jacob disease rocked
Britons' faith in politicians, regulators and scientists. No wonder
then that the tabloids have had a field day with the "Frankenfood"
epithet for GM food."
