So, I caught one of those little CNN banners today while the President was mumbling something ignorant. It read simply:
The FDA bans cow brains and spinal chords from all forms of feed-not just cattle.

I suppose one side of me wanted to be happy that the FDA made such a landmark decision. The other side (the larger side) wondered WHY THE HELL WERE WE FEEDING ANIMALS GROUND UP COW BRAINS AND SPINAL CHORDS IN THE FIRST PLACE?!!!

Did it really, at one time, seem like a good solution? "Ah shit, we're all outta feed. Whatta we gonna do," Farmer Jed must have said. To which Farmer Jackassabilly Dickwad had to have replied, "Get a spoon. We can pull out Bessie's brains and grind up her spinal chord, too! WHOOPEEE!"

Let's think of all the farm animals we can, shall we?
Chickens
Cows
Sheep
Goats
Pigs

That's enough for now. Out of all those, how many do you think naturally feast on cow brains and spinal chords?
0
Pigs might, but pigs eat anything. But, seriously, are we running out of SEEDS?!! Is there no more HAY?!! Are we really that stupid?
Apparently.
