    My dad got hooked on beef that was raised in Florida and fed the waste from the orange juice factories.

    Side Note: Floridas OJ production is now just a sliver of what it once was....Brazil is saving the day though US per capita OJ consumption is also way down.

    no.....you are thinking of pigs.......cows are quite fastidious.....

    do you know WHY there are tufts of taller grass in every cow pasture?........because cows won't eat the grass growing where it has shit......

    The devil is in the details here. If I could get the grass fed from my friend's ranch in Utah then it would be that. Reason being that they have an abnormally high protein level in their grass. Ordinary grass ranches require grain finish to obtain some marbling mainly because of the loss on the way to slaughter. My friend's ranch slaughter's in house. Very unusual and probably unique in the US.

    Beef for people who eat the nutrition label and dont care about food quality is about how I have it.

    I think with beef most people are just trying to afford to eat some. Overall quality is way down. To get very good beef you need to be buying direct or be Elon Musk.

    My favorite steaks are the ones for which somebody else picks up the check.

    My ex-son-in-law was good for that,
    so I probably miss him a hell of a lot more than my daughter does.
