Industrial beef…


I just finished reading an article in the New York Times’ Sunday Magazine which was entitled Power Steer. It described how modern beef is produced — and produced is the right word here.

That article is making wonder (a) what does grass-fed beef taste like (it’s supposed to be more “flavorful” or, ah, “tough”) and (b) how much it costs compared to the industrial beef which most of us eat most of the time.
