Why is this a story? Actually, the better question is why does Adrian Peterson have to stand and testify in front of a grand jury in the first place?

Nat Geo inspired.

Your spatial skills must be tantamount to my contextual perspective.

No, they do not, and I was discussing the subject. There was no argument.

Sounds like he ruptured his patellar tendon. There was a mention of surgery.

Except it's not bullocks. Comparing prions to STIs is bollocks. Eating and sex are two different necessities. One continues an individual's survival, while another continues the species survival (and a bit of the individual).

Neither of your replies make sense.

No.

Ooohhh, so it's like "white/non-hispanic" on the SATs/ACTs, college applications, job applications, etc. Gotcha.

Mad cow disease is also known as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE). It is similar to CJD in humans, and when people eat BSE infected meat they develop new variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (nvCJD).

It should be noted, BSE developed because we were using beef by-products in cattle feed. In other words, feeding cows to cows.

Ever hear of mad cow disease? Roughly a decade ago it was the cause of the BSE (bovine spongiform encephalopathy) epizootic. People consumed meat from cattle that were contaminated with BSE. As a result they developed vCJD (variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease). While the highest concentration of prions can be found…

Yep! Feeding cows other cows isn't the best idea.

Wrong. Prions don't exactly infect. They're broken (not broken down, just broken) proteins inside of food that can reassemble once ingested. They cannot transfer like bacteria or a virus. Mainly because it is only when they are digested that they can travel through system and pass through the blood brain barrier. …

Let's have a toast! What ocean water do you prefer?

Other animals... that have not evolved for millennia. Yes, reptiles still do it as a way of preventing competition from future generations, but it is not common for a mammal to knowingly eat its own kind.

You! You are the one person that understands exactly what I was trying to say. Thank you.

Notice I said "Anything unhealthy." Primates can develop TSEs as well. If you still disagree with me, we could always continue this conversation over a glass of sea water.

No. STIs are mostly curable, if not manageable, and they don't mean certain death. To reproduce there is only one option, but when it comes to nourishment there are a multitude of options... that won't kill you.

Unhealthy = not good for your health
