Yeah, let me know how it all works out for ya.
Make sure to label your more expensive meat as non-CAFO to lure in the PETA types.
Me? I’ll take the less expensive meat or slaughter my own. Thanks.

First, PETA doesn't like eating of any kind of meat.
Second, your 'cheap' meat is artifically cheap because the cattle are fattened up on highly subsidized corn. More and more of that corn is geneticly modified much ot Monsanto's benefit to to the detriment of our health. Once pasture fed beef a put in a CAFO and fed on corn, several things happen. The cow start getting sick because God designed them to eat grass not grains so they're loaded up with antibiotics. CLA virtually disappears and the good Omega-3 Omega-6 ratios reverse.
We used to spend 18% of our income on food and 9% on health care, Today, we spend about 9% on artificially cheap food and 18% on pre-Obamacare health care. I would venture to say that most of our health problems today are food related so what you save through buying artifically cheap food you'll more than compensate for in increased health care costs.
My suggestions to you would be to educate yourself on food safey/sovreignty issues, buy locally from farmers you can trust and learn to grow and preserve your own food. It only takes 3 days for the average grocery store to run out of food. I've seen them go faster in hurricane season here. When there is crisis, real or manufactured, it doesn't take long for it to effect the food supply.
