>>21492364 (OP)USA "beef" is garbage. Disgusting factory farmed, corn fed, growth hormone pumped, bovada injected trash. Youโve never had real beef. The only reason you defend that hormone-pumped, feedlot-raised garbage is because your entire identity is tied to blind loyalty to anything made in the USA. You donโt actually enjoy it, you just canโt admit someone else does it better.
You grew up thinking grey, corn-fed slabs from Walmart drenched in BBQ sauce were fine dining. Thatโs not beef, itโs bloated, watery protein slop engineered for shelf life, not taste.
Your entire industry is built on quantity over quality. Pump the cattle full of hormones, fatten them on corn in overcrowded pens, butcher them fast, slap a "USDA Choice" label on it, and sell it to the masses who donโt know any better.
Decades of marketing convinced you that โmarblingโ from artificial weight gain is good. Itโs not. Thatโs not craftsmanship, itโs cattle obesity. You defend it not because it's better, but because itโs yours. Itโs fast food with a cowboy hat.
This isnโt about patriotism, itโs about standards. And yours are in the dirt. Defending your beef is like defending Kraft Singles against Parmigiano-Reggiano. Just because you're used to slop doesn't make it good.
The rest of the world doesnโt want your industrial runoff. Trying to export it to countries with actual food culture is like bringing instant coffee to Italy or gas station sushi to Japan. It's not just unwanted; it's insulting.
Raise your standards or keep chewing on mediocrity. Your choice.
