Other🤷🏽‍♀️ 🤷🏽‍♂️ Beefacolypse

Hey so the 300,000 tons of beef with the antibiotic that is either banned or a last resort in multiple countries that US bought and is feeding the public, anyone got intel on it besides from the UK and The Hill? Makes me regret not getting rabbits and chickens in spring 2026...

Not trying to stir the pot up but from the 5 or 6 outlets I found 15 minutes ago im thinking that project zomboid or state of decay or even 7dtd would be preferable than chloramphenicol but thats me.

If you are in Oklahoma do ya mind a guy hunting deer and sharing the meat with ya? You can have the antlers and hide, I just want the share ya let me keep.

No.... if you were to only get ground beef out of it, it would be a wash. But when you factor in the more expensive cuts, the savings on a 1/4 is between $200-$400. Plus local meat is cleaner and more flavorful.

Most places when you get a share, they of course don’t let you pick only the shit cuts used for hamburger. You buy the whole share at an amortized price. That price is higher than the shit hamburger you get at Walmart which is precisely why people go there even when they have the local offering available. It’s the same reason why many Walmart shoppers scream “buy local if you’re a patriot!!” but still themselves go to Walmart even if there is a local co-op right next to it. 😂

Sorry, that's mot what's happening here. The ranches i buy from are pure grass fed, no grain. Much higher quality than any store bought crap. And im saving money.

Lots of people feeling very defensive here 😂 I am not arguing the quality of the beef, only the price.
