This is exactly what all beef-eating families should be doing. If you're not, you're playing Russian roulette.

I didn't know you could do this, now that I can, I will encourage everyone I know who eats beef to do it this way! Guess what? You don't have to eat questionable beef. Well, you knew that. You knew you could go buy grass-fed beef. But now you know you're not the only one doing it. Here's an article from SFGate.com about how one family is opting out of the traditional go-to-the-grocery-store-to-buy-beef way of getting their food. Finally, consumers are wising up to the mad cow threat our nation faces because the USDA refuses the test every cow meant for human consumption for BSE. Check out this quote from the article:

"Cost-wise, we know it's really good," says Jeff Hagan. "It's great beef. And you don't have to worry about mad cow. And you're doing something environmentally better. And you don't have to worry about hormones for your kids -- so what's wrong with it?"

Certainly if an option is healthier and more economical, you would call that a no-brainer choice, no?

The article also points out a website called www.EatWild.com, where you can find local farmers who will sell you a large cut of grass-fed beef.
