Re. beef imports from CAFTA countries, I've read that the beef they send to the USA has to be cooked due to possible Foot and Mouth disease in those countries, and that it is low quality manufacturing beef.

Does anyone know if that is currently (within the past 3 years to now) true?

I do know that they have imported our high quality grain fed beef for their tourism and wealthy citizens who can afford it.

Which doesn't sound like a bad trade since they have cut the tarrifs they imposed on our beef. They have the same deal they had before on sending their low cost lean beef north, while we have a much better deal on sending our high priced fed beef south.
