People carry a turd-shaped balloon during a march to protest against the lifting of a U.S. beef ban by the Taiwan government, in Taipei November 14, 2009. A few thousand protesters marched on Saturday towards the Presidential Office against the decision to reopen 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.
