Last Thursday, the Bush Administration brought an already punitive duty up to 300 %, to take effect in March, on Roquefort to punish Europe which is maintaining ban on US hormone-fed beef, for health reasons. President Obama will be asked to call off that perfidious new American attack on cheese or face retaliation against symbol of US power — Coca-Cola.

Let the US beef be sold in Europe, so long as it is clearly labeled.
Problem solved.

I don't think war can be averted I am afraid, and not just the economic kind. But I doubt it will be between the US and Europe somehow.
