Big H* Posted May 23, 2013 Share definately. Havana in durbs has a grass vs grain steak. Two steaks from the same farm, same breed. One cow grass fed. The other grain. HUGE difference in smell and taste . Grass fed beef has yellow fat, grain fed has white solid fat. HaydenE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DIPSLICK Posted May 23, 2013 Share Yip many ways, you need to know where your meat comes from(old school butcher)But I suppose even those these days,, luckily we not huge meat eaters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuppa Bru Posted May 23, 2013 Share Fark steaks! Some of the info is shocking. Ignorance was bliss And this probably filters down the milk produced by the cows, the cream, butter and cheeses made from the milk.Looks like I need to explore organic produce.Coincidentally been to a dietitian recently and he recommended the Bryanston Organic Market to me, so will have to explore it some more. The guys over at the LCHF forum also had some good info on grass-fed butter (Kerrygold) being healthier than the grain?fed variety.I remember seeing pictures in history books of dairy farmers in old communist East Germany feeding the cattle with rolls from the local bakery due to the screwed up subsidy system. Would have been interesting to know how those cattle's milk/meat compared to grain-fed or grass-fed. Whether its was Clenbutorol or Mielie Pap Filler, it smelled k@k and ruined my soup. I returned the packet to a PnP yesterday (minus the piece that landed into my soup), but I doubt I'll hear from them about what was wrong with the meat.

Cuppa Bru Posted May 23, 2013 Share it is in durbs. Mooi river farm Pity! In case anyone was wondering about the extenders and fillers Morewoodman mentioned, here is an intersting article:http://www.fao.org/docrep/010/ai407e/AI407E16.htm These volume-cheating additives are classed into two categoriesExtenders: Vegetable-source proteins (soy)Fillers: Vegetable-source carbs (pretty much any meal you can think of, including corn (mielie) meal) Ok! Mystery solved! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydenE Posted May 23, 2013 Share Very interesting subject - just look at the difference in the colour of the fat for those that make their own biltong - grass or organic = yellow fat, grain fed = white fat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
