Can you truly trust the package meat at the market that is labeled grass fed? I still think that is a crock of shite. I think they just package it as "grass fed" and raised the price. That is just me being a skeptic though.


i think the bigger question is how big a difference any of it makes (see my post above re: PUFA in meat), and what "toxins" are making it into the meat we eat (and in any quantity that matters). Everyone likes to talk about toxins and detoxing, but I haven't seen much true scientific analysis of this, especially with grass-fed v. grain-finished beef.

I much prefer the taste of grain-finished steaks + price and availability = i don't care about grass-fed any more.

i do love Kerrygold butter and Kalona heavy whipping cream, so I splurge on that.

also, eggs have enough PUFA to make it worth going cage-free/high omega-3 to me, and i definitely like the taste of yard eggs v. chicken-torture kind.

The O3-O6 ratios btw grass and grain finished beef is not that much. All beef in this state is grass fed, most are grain finished for fattening/taste. Farm raised salmon to wild caught salmon is a big difference.

Also, yard bird eggs are best (very dark yolk) but if you can't get them, just buy the cheap eggs because it isn't killing you and save your money.
