An employee arranges beef products in a supermarket in Taipei October 23, 2009. Taiwan will reopen its markets to U.S. bone-in beef most likely in November, ending a six-year import ban that was in place over fears of mad cow disease, and ushering improving ties with Washington, officials said on Friday. The Chinese characters read, "U.S. Beef." REUTERS/Pichi Chuang (TAIWAN HEALTH FOOD)
