There are two types of meats tender and tough that is used in the kitchen. Why do kitchen allow tough or tender meats? Which one is better for you as a consumer? First of all, meat is a very demanding product in markets and kitchen then there is the part as to how we receive their tough meats. Many people now know that the tough meats come from the “factory farms.” In these places cows are pushed and shoved into one area so they start to feel stressed, their muscles tightens because of it, and finally are killed that way. So now the question is if they know where they come from why do they buy these kinds of meats? The answer is that they are massed produced and because of this they are bought at such an affordable price. However, this does not mean we cannot enjoy them, as people, parents, and chefs they would know how to cook them to make them tender and delicious.

...in the market. Diversified mid-sized family farms used to produce most of our meat, but now, only a few companies control the livestock industry. This has resulted in driving family farmers out of the market and replacing them with massive confined feeding operations that subject the animals to terrible living conditions that subject our food to contamination. Major food corporations are only concerned with minimizing overhead in order to deliver the consumer cheap food, regardless of the health implications.

For some consumers of meat products, however, marbling is a must, because of the flavor and moisture that fat gives to the meat. This is not to say that venison is not flavorful or tender, but just a little less than that of beef. Beef has more than three times the amount of cholesterol than venison does, which gives those with heart disease a chance to eat a meat that is low in cholesterol (Rail). Even bet...
The mouthwatering taste of locally grown food can be exceedingly mesmerizing due to the fact that it was grown a day before it was in the market. (Maiser) The demand for locally grown foods also allows the farmers to produce higher quality vegetables and fruit of quality and value. Others benefits of growing and eating food locally is the nutritional values that come with the food, the food does not have preservatives or growth hormones, it is grown and created to what it was supposed to be not genetically engineered to be delicious. Logically having more farms brings in more revenue for the farmers and the community. Even the taste of freshly grown food is better than the taste of factory-style grown meat and produce, is it better to eat meat that has been gr...
Did you know that a cow harvested specifically for beef only lives up to 18 months? The average cow usually lives up to 18-25 years! Today I will talk to you about the cruelty and chemicals that goes into the beef you are buying from your local grocery store. Not that I am in any way a vegetarian or against eating meat, but it is important for you to be informed about what goes into the food that you are putting into your body. You only have one, after all.
At any average supermarket, the meat aisle contains no bones in the meat. It has all become processed meat that does not come from a farm as all the top beef and pork producers advertise. The reality is not a farm, it’s a factory. A rhetorical strategy the film uses is the voices of the real victims of the food industry, out of all the farmers interviewed, only one spoke out and that shows the power
Many people use the meat that they have harvested while hunting as a main food source for themselves and their families. One could argue that is easier to just buy store bought meat. While it is easier to buy meat from a store, it’s cheaper and healthier to hunt your own meat. In his article, J. Townsend talks about store bought meat vs. hunting
The well-being of children is one of the major concerns for parents. Parents are involved in the child’s welfare, which includes a good education, excellent health care, and many other factors required for the child’s development. A person’s health is directly affected by their dietary habits. Therefore, parents have to make sure they are providing the most nutritional food possible for their child. Parents are mostly unaware of the battle that exists in our country today, a battle over beef. The conflict is focused on whether Grass-fed or Corn-fed beef is healthier? There are many differences between the two types of beef products. The purpose of this research paper is to reveal the advantages of consuming grass-fed beef over corn-fed beef products. This paper will explain the differences between grass-fed beef and corn-fed beef, discuss why grass-fed is healthier, and why consumers should not consume corn-fed cattle.
In the book Eating Animals by Jonathan Safran Foer, the author talks about, not only vegetarianism, but reveals to us what actually occurs in the factory farming system. The issue circulating in this book is whether to eat meat or not to eat meat. Foer, however, never tries to convert his reader to become vegetarians but rather to inform them with information so they can respond with better judgment. Eating meat has been a thing that majority of us engage in without question. Which is why among other reasons Foer feels compelled to share his findings about where our meat come from. Throughout the book, he gives vivid accounts of the dreadful conditions factory farmed animals endure on a daily basis. For this reason Foer urges us to take a stand against factory farming, and if we must eat meat then we must adapt humane agricultural methods for meat production.
Increasing consumer sentiment towards the negative health effects of red meat, timed with increasing inventories of product supplied from Canada and Mexico as a result of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), has caused prices in the consumer market to plummet. (Mohr, 1999) As a result, ranchers were seeing that their finished product was commanding lesser dollar values while their inputs of feed and medication was remaining the same or rising. Another factor contributing to the shrinking profit margins of beef producers was the overall consistency and quality of the meat.
Today’s medical experts say that avoiding meat helps you avoid saturated fat. They have found out from studies that women who eat meat daily have a fifty percent greater risk of developing heart disease than vegetarian women and a sixty-eight percent greater risk in men (staff writer). People may not know about serious diseases meat can cause such as, mad cow disease and foot-and-mouth disease. In the September 1999 issue of the Emerging Infectious Diseases, approximately 76 million food-borne illnesses- resulting in 325,000 hospitalizations and 5,000 deaths occur in the United States each year from improperly cooked or diseased meat (Licher). That is a lot of fun!
An abundance of Americans have no idea that most of the food that they consume are either processed or altered in one way or another. “Almost all beef cattle entering feedlots in the United States are given hormone implants to promote faster growth. The first product used for this purpose is DES (diethylstilbestrol) it was approved for use in beef cattle in 1954. An estimated two-thirds of the nation's beef cattle were treated with DES in 1956. (Swan, Liu, Overstreet, Brazil, and Skakkebaek)” Many people enjoy the various meats that comes from a cow, but that would probably change if the consumers knew that cattle is one of the most processed meat source in the market today because of the synthetic hormones that the cows are given. “ The three synthetic hormones are the estrogen compound zeranol, the androgen trenbolone acetate, and progestin melengestrol acetate. (Swan, Liu, Overstreet, B...
Is it morally permissible to eat meat? Much argument has arisen in the current society on whether it is morally permissible to eat meat. Many virtuous fruitarians and the other meat eating societies have been arguing about the ethics of eating meat (which results from killing animals). The important part of the dispute is based on the animal welfare, nutrition value from meat, convenience, and affordability of meat-based foods compared to vegetable-based foods and other factors like environmental moral code, culture, and religion. All these points are important in justifying whether humans are morally right when choosing to eat meat. This paper will argue that it is morally impermissible to eat meat by focusing on the treatment of animals, the environmental argument, animal rights, pain, morals, religion, and the law.
People love to eat meat. For over two million years, humans have relied on eating meat in order to survive or simply just because they enjoy the taste. Early humans had more powerful jaws and larger teeth and relied on meat as one of their main sources of food. As evolution took place and humans evolved, they developed smaller teeth and were only able to eat the meat if it was cooked. With humans evolving and being able to survive on foods other than meat, meat does not have to necessarily be a part of human diet anymore. Although many people have opted for a vegetarian lifestyle, most people still continue to eat meat and do not consider it a cruel act. Many have also stopped eating meat due health risks and environmental concern. Whether
Let me begin with the words by George Bernard Shaw: ‘Animals are my friends and I don’t eat my friends’. This indicates the ethic aspect of meat consumption. In fact, people often don’t realize how animals are treated, but they can see commercial spots in their TV showing smiling pigs, cows or chickens, happy and ready to be eaten. My impression is that there can’t be anything more cruel and senseless. It is no secret that animals suffer ...
