         Winfrey: No More Beef
         Oprah Winfrey is taking on the beef industry. The talk show
host says she won't eat any more hamburgers because of fears
about ``mad cow'' disease. Winfrey said on her show yesterday
she was shocked after a guest said meat and bone meal made from
cattle was routinely fed to other cows to boost their meat and
milk production. ``It has just stopped me cold from eating
another burger,'' Winfrey said. The camera showed members of the
studio audience gasping in surprise as vegetarian activist
Howard Lyman explained how cattle parts were rendered and fed to
other cattle.
