You have probably heard by now about the latest biotechnology being added to cattle feed, both for beef and dairy production. If you haven’t, you have clearly disconnected yourself from the incessant stream of media pouring out of that little screen in your pocket. To no one's surprise but the companies using it, this new technology now being used to produce meat sold by Coles went viral not only here in Australia but also overseas.  Boaver is a synthetic feed additive designed to reduce methane emissions in cattle by altering their natural digestive processes. It works by blocking the enzyme responsible for producing methane (sounds harmless). Now there are loads of people online (most of them without any real evidence) stating that this product is NOT SAFE FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION. Truth is, we don’t bloody know, and we won’t know until enough animals and humans have died in such a way that we can link their deaths unequivocally with Bovaer.
