The Truth About Grass-Fed Beef: NPR's Tiny Desk KItchen
Loading...
Uploaded by npr on Apr 9, 2010
A decade ago, there were fewer than 50 grass-fed cattle operations in the U.S. Now there are thousands. Clearly people are eating this meat. Trendiness aside, NPR's Allison Aubrey asks: Is grass-fed beef more nutritional than standard, corn-fed beef? And NPR's Susan Stamberg and Ari Shapiro weigh in on the taste.

Don't just worry about the meat taste! What about the higher levels of E Coli in corn fed cows. Because of that, they need antibiotics. Now we're eating that. Also, don't forget about the milk we're drinking from these antibiotic cows.

@depsterboy E-coli from feedlot corn fed cattle comes from them standing in their feces for the first miserable part of their life where it can live on them in the caked on shit and subsequently taint the food end product - beef. Sure the same thing could happen with a grass fed cow however the chances are drastically lower.

@toodance you dont know what you are talking about
-
@strid3r34 and why dont you have to worry about e-coli in grass fed? id like to see your sources

corn fed beef is nut humane and it doesn't taste good. Anyone who thinks corn fed beef is the best tasting obviously hasn't been to Argentina or France or any other country renowned for great beef. Guess what, all of the beef there is grass fed.

It also depends how you cook it. More fat allows you to be a lazy cook and still get it right.
Grass fed is better for the farmer and, relatively, the environment. It just depends where it comes from.
Also corn fed cattle also goes to a "feed lot" before butchering. If you have driven by one, you know why they are a bad thing!

@strid3r34 Yeah you do have to worry. All cattle have the capability to carry E. coil O157:H7. Go ask a livestock veterinarian. Eating it rare is okay with both though.
