        I’d think the financial crash. What did Oprah say?

          Oprah did a very controversial, very public show about mad cow disease, implying it was in America, and led to a big lawsuit.

          There are multiple sources of info, but for some easy listening, checkout the podcast ‘Maintenance Phase’ which did a 2 part feature on it.

          Is that actually what we’re seeing reflected in the graph? Mmm, I’m not convinced. But it’s definitely true that she did hurt the beef industry in America.
