[QUOTE="Frankie, post: 705022, member: 13"] CAB was created by the American Angus Association when they saw demand for beef and demand for Angus cattle were both falling. Continental breeds had pretty much taken over the beef industry and packers were having a hard time filling orders for higher quality beef. So they got the USDA to change the grading system. The AAA fought that change, but they lost. They believed consumers would pay more for quality beef and started the CAB program. It wasn't a "few" in the Association. Some Directors did try to kill it more than once because of the expense when registrations were falling, but the Board, overall, and members supported it. it's taken a lot of years to get CAB where it is today. While people may not be able to afford beef as often as they'd like these days, they do want/expect good beef when they eat it. [/QUOTE]
