"The beef industry has contributed to more American deaths than all the wars of this century, all natural disasters, and all automobile accidents combined. If beef is your idea of ‘real food for real people,’ you'd better live real close to a real good hospital."
- Neal D. Barnard, M.D., President Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine
