[QUOTE="Clodhopper, post: 1388238, member: 24993"] As was discussed in the food control thread, I've witnessed firsthand vertical integration in my area with hogs. It's a sad thing to watch rural communities dry up. The local factory employs more people than ever, but our county's population continues to slip away with the loss of farms. We always hear about the need for a better, more consistent product to serve consumers. Well, the pork you buy in the store is consistent, consistently flavorless that is. The pork that I've fed and butchered is always better than store bought. The flavor of hamburger from our home raised beef equals that of most store bought steak. I can't recall ever having store bought meat that was better than home raised. I'm sure most of you will agree. Who's bringing the better product to the table? [/QUOTE]
