Taste the Difference: Grass Fed and Grass Finished Beef
If you’re new to the paleo diet, then maybe you’re just starting to become aware of what truly grass fed beef means. If you’re health conscious about the beef you put into your body, then it’s possible you already know. As with so much “marketing” speak out there, anyone and everyone jumps on a particular bandwagon, and twists the purity right out of a concept — rendering the words meaningless. For example, can you honestly say you know what you’re getting when you buy something that has an “Organic” sticker on it?
Sadly, the term “Grass Fed” is heading down a similar path. What should signify “grass fed and grass finished,” the idea that cattle might live their whole lives raised on grass and nothing else — has started to come undone. Some less than straightforward ranchers are offering “grass fed” beef products, when really they’re just allowing the cattle to feed on grass for part of their lives, while they’re “finished” on grain and upsold to larger, less pure cattle ranchers before being slaughtered and sent to market. If you’ve tasted truly grass fed beef, the way the ranchers at Carman Ranch produce it, then you know there is really no exception.Some Information About Carman Ranch
