I have some friends that raise cattle,tough work.Lose an animal to disease or injury and there goes your profit margin.We might start a few head in the future,at least we would know what they were fed so I’d feel a lot better about eating beef.You just wouldn’t hardly believe what goes on at the big feedlots-—

We can just get it from China.
