I think today was a good moment (in the usa) to consider no longer -or pulling back- from the consumption of beef consumption. It was reported that there was a HUGE beef call back in California- 65 million Kilos! a record amount. What a useless waste of life.
When I first arrive to Europe 1999 I was surprised that i had a number of friends who had become vegetarians ( in Paris and in Berlin). They had grown to be concerned about the mad-cow-disease that had broken out in certain parts of the UK and causing great concern here on the "continent". for this reason I had beef "once" in the several years I lived in Paris. Once, with frites of course, and I believe a mustard sauce- at a Bistro on rue des écoles near the Sorbonne and allt he bookshops (Publishers Harmathan and présence africaine are on that street)
During this christmas 2007 season I became a tad obsessed with learning how to make Seitan as a beef/meat substitute with limited success. I have yet to learn the full successful formula for the winning recipe.
