Cancer eye in cattle prompts meat processing routine
U.S. Agriculture Department data show Americans ate millions of pounds of beef from cattle with cancerous eye or similar tumors. About 103,000 cattle carcasses were held for trimming, with 166 carcasses showing carcinoma and 102,669 with epithelioma. Overall, more than 3.3 million cattle carcasses were detained for disease-related trimming in 1969.
