MagiK, don't believe what Monsanto tells you, or the FDA. The FDA is clearly a "captured" agency - meaning it has simply slept with the industries it regulates way too often to be disinterested.

Here's an "out there" site for you that states some credible stuff:

(note that it costs more than regular meat).

Here's how consumers view it:

Sometimes general common sense is best.

Here is the exceedingly credible Humane Society's take on it:

Quite simply, irradiated e.coli-infected meat doesn't come 100% clean.

Plus, why can't we just eat food the way mother nature made it, for crying out loud? Is that so damned hard?
