Both Disgusting and Dangerous

So tonight I had the Food Network on, and they had one one of their game show type programs where the chiefs had to make a dish with certain ingredients. One of the ingredients they had to use in this episode was goat brains....

I did not even know you could use that for food. Heck, I didn't even know that anyone would WANT to use that for food. I mean that's just gross. Anyway, my dad was in the room at the time, and he was just as grossed out as I was. But he pointed something out to me that I did not know. Eating brain matter of any kind isn't just gross, it's dangerous. You see mad cow disease comes from cattle eating feed that has the brain matter of other cattle. And there is no cure for mad cow.

Now it could be that I don't know all the facts, and if anyone does feel free to correct me. But it now seems to me that using that sort of ingredient is a major health hazard. I don't know what the producers of that show were thinking. Of course even if it isn't as big a hazard as i think it is, I still wouldn't eat anything made with any sort of brain. I mean that's just nasty. Just wanted to get that off my chest.
