I've heard about this quite often in the news lately..Mad Pig disease?
I don't know..I'm PPMS, but never worked at Hormel or any of its supportive companies around those parts. Only rarely eat pork..It's a very interesting story. I hope Mayo (or anyone) can some up with some answers. I wonder how much of it has to do with the plant itself, and specifically the area the affected people work in? I know we'll be watching it here!
