Oldtimer, I wasn't talking about using a quality grade stamp to label it. One of the things the Industry will have to do is to come up with an acceptable label.
And the packer and retailer will label it if there's money in it. They do it with CAB every day! There's no reason that the same principle won't work.
Just imagine if the Federal government had told all of the breeds years ago to come up with their own branded product and given them mandatory guidelines to do it with. Would we have anything as successful as CAB? I don't think so! The Angus people have a success with CAB because its consumer driven, but producer managed. Not because the government makes them label it as CAB!
