Why should someone purchase grass-fed vs. grocery store beef?
People are demanding grass fed/grass finished because it's more natural. Some grocery store meat are from cattle that have been fed with genetically modified corn. You hear on the radio all the time about how if you buy this seed it is resistant to weed killer and pesticides and grows better. This is unnatural stuff. With Big Foot Beef, you can feel better knowing you are eating a more natural piece of meat.
The red meat you see at the typical grocery store retains its bright red color due to carbon monoxide injections. It's a practice that has been banned in many countries but not here in the U.S.. It's not only unhealthy, it affects flavor as well making a otherwise juicy flavorful cut drier and bland. Some stores are also known to inject their meat with a sodium brine to add weight and try to add some flavor back that was lost from the carbon monoxide injection. That meat is far from natural.
Who do buyers contact if they have more questions?
Please contact Big Foot Beef Co. directly by phone, email or through the website.
