Presently, U.S. beef packaged by large conglomerates in the
United States can be mixed with that of other countries, for
example, Brazil, where they have had outbreaks of the Mad
Cow Disease, without country-of-origin labeling. "We can
do beer than that," said Schweitzer. "Our beef will have the
'Montana Beef ' trademark on the label so that customers will
know what to look for when they decide quality Montana beef
is their choice."
