S.Korea allows US beef

South Korea will allow the resumption of US beef imports starting today, restricting trade to cattle under 30 months old and forbidding imports of parts that are thought to pose a higher risk of mad cow disease, such as brain and spinal material. Beef containing internal orgains and tongues will undergo quarantine checks under the microscope, and if they are found to have any virus, the batch of beef will be sent back.
