Mad-cow disease is once again sweeping Europe, prompting renewed fears on this side of the Atlantic, including a New York-area recall of Mamba, a candy that contains beef gelatin. What do you think?

"Now I can finally unload all this mad-cow-related merchandise."

Young Woman

"Mad Cow? Isn't that the guy on the Z-106 Morning Nuthouse? I always knew there was something wrong with him."

Old Man

"People are overlooking an important aspect of this crisis: Have you actually seen a cow staggering around drooling? It's hilarious."

Asian Man

Machinist
"Does this candy knock children unconscious for an hour or so? Oh. Never mind, then."
