Comment:
If you must buy beef, buy if from Blackwing. All their beef is guaranteed no downers, grass feed, humanely treated, and routinely tested for Mad Cow. Not to mention the price is lower than Whole Foods and most other chains and the quality is so much better you won't ever want any other meat.
