8. I think our beef farmers have a longer term concern.

US beef is predominantly corn fed. Argentinian beef is predominantly grass fed. They taste different and, imho, it isn’t subtle.

I happen to like corn fed but I know folks, mostly who have traveled to Europe, who like grass fed. Considering that 50% of the US population has likely NOT had grass fed beef, ya gotta wonder how many will actually like grass fed when they have it.

Important to the US beef industry to keep corn fed as the standard of excellence.

IMHO.
