    I live in a ranching state (South Dakota) where beef is processed locally, and it’s nearly impossible to get grass-fed meat. Sure, some of it is labeled “grass-fed” with a drastically higher price point (unsustainable for most people), but the whole industry is so corrupt and ethically bankrupt that it’s a meaningless label, just like almost anything else you buy here.

      I remember watching a video years ago someone had secretly filmed inside of a dairy farm and the workers filled a bunch of normal milk jugs, then they switched out to filling some pseudo science bullshit cartons with a million claims on the labels about how it was made… With the same milk. These labels mean NOTHING, they never have and they never will; and you’re a massive idiot if you’re wasting extra money on anything because it has the word “organic” printed on the package.

        Yep, things like “grass fed” or “farm fresh” are absolutely meaningless. It’s just scams on top of scams and lies on top of lies.
