Overview

Mad Cow U.S.A. shatters the false belief that the government and food industry would never let it happen here. Even as tens of thousands of cows died in Britain, the government denied the risk to human beings.

Rampton and Stauber expose, for the first time, the deadly game of "dementia roulette" being played with our food supply.
