Moo.

It has not changed my eating habits at all.

I would not doubt that you will see massive destruction of any tainted beef or of any herds that were exposed. But I think it is also a matter of percentage - there are a lot more cattle in the US compared to the UK. It will be more contained. Plus, a lot of time has gone by since the UK outbreak, and there are better procedures for containing and tracking the problem.
