USA "beef" is garbage. Disgusting factory farmed, corn fed, growth hormone pumped, bovada injected trash. You’ve 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 don’t actually enjoy it, you just can’t admit someone else does it better.
You grew up thinking grey, corn-fed slabs from Walmart drenched in BBQ sauce were fine dining. That’s not beef, it’s 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 don’t know any better.
Decades of marketing convinced you that “marbling” from artificial weight gain is good. It’s not. That’s not craftsmanship, it’s cattle obesity. You defend it not because it's better, but because it’s yours. It’s fast food with a cowboy hat.
This isn’t about patriotism, it’s 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 doesn’t 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.
