Haha, one of my best friends is a beef rancher of grass-fed beef.. demand for their meat, even though it’s a lot more expensive than grocery store beef, has GONE THROUGH THE ROOF since the pandemic!!! It’s the toilet paper of food!! And once you taste the difference, there’s no going back!!! 🥩 🍔

Good luck with that, Bill Gates!!

@charlotte1958 @DropsofJupiter

Is this going to be like when Coca Cola put out that Fairlife Milk and nobody to this day cares?

@atreus @DropsofJupiter

Hmmmm... I don’t know.. I actually never heard of Fairlife Milk but just looked it up and it’s low-lactose milk, which some people need due to lactose intolerance..

Maybe worse than that?!

Who’s eating Beyond Meat and Impossible Burgers?? That’s probably his market..

But not me!! 😄🥩🍔

@charlotte1958 @atreus @DropsofJupiter

I've upgraded my meat eating, due to being kicked out of grocery stores for not wearing masks.

The meat is more expensive but the quality is amazing! I don't think I could go back to store bought.

Only liberals, I know, eat beyond meat and impossible burgers!

@Scarletteverb @charlotte1958 @atreus @DropsofJupiter

I guess I can share
Just bought 4 huge filet mignon.
I have an unopened bottle of Trump Champagne. You're all invited😉

@Scarletteverb @atreus @DropsofJupiter

The quality and flavor is unbelievable!! There’s no comparison in any way.. people are totally rethinking their budgets to account for the difference in cost!!

@charlotte1958 Good friend of mine is a nutritionist. Compare the nutrition (hardly any) of the beyond burger with real beef and you realize the ludicrousness (is that a word?) of eating the fake burger. Why bother? It's def. NOT healthier. @atreus @DropsofJupiter

@wziminer

Typically these foods contain more fat, sugar and salt then the real deal.

@charlotte1958 @atreus @DropsofJupiter

@JM Yup. I can understand being vegetarian as a moral choice, but if I want a burger, I'm having a burger. Being vegetarian can also harm people. @charlotte1958 @atreus @DropsofJupiter

@wziminer @JM @atreus @DropsofJupiter

I think vegans and vegetarians have to work harder to ingest enough essential amino acids!! I think it can be done, but is more challenging without meat.. and I think it also depends on whether the vegetarian eats eggs, fish, milk.. I think some do..

@charlotte1958 @wziminer @JM @atreus Completely agree. I know a vegetarian who suffered from fibromyalgia w/severe pain & weakness in her hands. She started to eat high quality red meat and her symptoms disappeared within 6 months!

@DropsofJupiter @wziminer @JM @atreus

That’s what I’m talking about!!! There’s a reason why we’ve evolved to be omnivores!!

@charlotte1958

I had a neighbor that also was one. When her children were visiting our home, they were always trying to get my son to sneak them forbidden foods. My friends would comment on how sickly they looked. A few times they did manage to get non-allowed foods and she (mother) would throw a freaking hissy fit!

@wziminer

I enjoy a variety of burgers: beef, turkey, and black bean (with a slice of pepper jack and Tostitos Avocado Salsa).

Interesting!! My rancher friend’s husband is actually a physician and they do the beef as a side venture - he has told me all about the health benefits of not using antibiotics or steroids, and various other practices of what they feed the cattle, what kind of grass, etc.. it doesn’t surprise me one bit!! They are very meticulous!!

And even just the flavor!! You just can’t believe the difference!!

@charlotte1958 i will pick some up. We have a meat market a few miles from me that sell the most wonderful tasting meats. As you say, a bit pricey but totally worth it. I will ask about the feed. Maybe they are already grass fed. @atreus @DropsofJupiter

@wziminer

You measure grazing capacity by by Acres per Cow in your neck of the woods 😎

FWIW the feed does make a big difference

@charlotte1958 @atreus @DropsofJupiter

@EarlThePearls @wziminer @atreus @DropsofJupiter

That’s what they tell me - I’m not in the cattle business but I’ll take their word for it!!

I know about how much property these people are ranching but I have no idea what their herd size is!! I think rye grass is the feed for at least part of the year!!

@charlotte1958

@wziminer lives on the edge of a big desert. My comment was frequently heard from the ranchers who also worked the rocket factory in northern Utah.

An offhand way of bragging about how good THEIR land was

@atreus @DropsofJupiter

@wziminer
But... I’m sure very profitable to some really rich elite group!

@charlotte1958 @DropsofJupiter
My kids grew up on Gf beef in Montana. Still eat it from farmer's market here in Missouri. Only way to go.

@richme4 @DropsofJupiter

I have another rancher friend that raises goats and sheep, so I eat that too!! Yummy!!
