[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 1430001, member: 4362"] And I'm sure you don't expect this will be any different. Just more BS. I run a closed herd and can truthfully say all of my animals would qualify for this also and I'm sure the majority of all the beef sold in the country would also qualify so to begin advertising this as some special beef raised in some new progressive manner is like admitting to a crime you never committed and gives credence to the false claims from people like Chipotle who refuses to buy Texas beef because its raised inhumanely. I had an uncle who was ahead of his time when it came to "organic and natural foods". In the '60's he was peddling all sorts of organic products making grandiose claims on how his products were so much more healthy for you. He was a nutcase but he made a good lick off selling that fuzzy feeling. However, in the '60's the public was more knowledgeable of agriculture than they are today and it didn't take long before his scheme was unveiled and he almost ended up in prison. Today, he would probably be viewed as a hero in many circles because the vast majority of the public is clueless and have no idea how their food is produced or what a great job most of us do in producing it. Its like I was told at a meeting, "we will only be selling a feeling and that feeling has a lot of value to add to your product even if that product is no different than the other." [/QUOTE]
