This includes meat imports from European countries that are the subject of a ban imposed amid fears of the spread of the so-called "Mad Cow Disease."

Hence, there is no guarantee imported meats are safe for consumption, Montemayor said in a telephone interview with The Freeman.

"We cannot be sure that these are, indeed, safe. That’s why everyone should take precautions," he said.
