A shame that all the GOOD beef goes to other countries and the dregs (domestic & imported)are left for us. No wonder U.S. consumption of beef is down.

I'll guarantee you they will go for the high end beef markets there.

Unless the tongues, lungs, lips, and bungs are sent over there, processed with cats and rats, and then shipped back here as All American chicken nuggets.

Great news for the beef industry.

Plus we have an opportunity here: In return, we take their processed chicken. UGH. If the beef people will get the word out, maybe beef can be KING again.

I certainly hope it helps the market. I would bet that any US beef that hits that market will be labeled as such and any "chicken" (or whatever they find that tastes like chicken) shipped here won't likely be attributed to China.

I have been buying Rib Steaks from Albertson's Grocery and they are GOOD, like REALLY GOOD. And the price is right. It is marketed as Blosdoe Ranch Beef. On sale $5.57/lb Family Pack. We tried them and then we stocked up.
 
I don't know why you'all gotta piss and moan about it
were getting some market back, "hopefully"
I don't eat chicken anyway so that don't concern me
When beef got so high priced here
a family of 4 both parents working
couldn't buy it , just what the hell are they spose to eat ?
It ain't the food price here really, its every thing else they have to spend money on

I hear you loud and clear, VB. I could say "pork"....it has been really affordable.
But "everything else they have to spend money on"....don't know about where you live, but where I live, especially
YOUNG families; spend money on everything recreational. They are up to their necks in debt for 4 wheelers, sidexsides, campers, pickups to pull campers. So where does the money come from to pay for those things? You guessed it......food....

As stated, I am hopeful about helping and recovering lost market. My comments weren't intended to be pissing and moaning, but a reference to unethical practices that China has become famous for. I am actually concerned about what may be passed along to the US consumers by the chicken people using deception by omission.
