Cost of beef today at Coles

Certified carbon neutral beef costs more than conventionally farmed beef in Australian supermarkets because some idiots readily pay the price for ideological reason.

Back in the 1990s steak was cheap enough that my
cat ate rump steak 4 to 5 days per week.
The other days she had tinned fish.
She lived till 18.

Nowadays you couldn't afford to feed a family rump steak
yet alone eye fillet steak from Coles.

Meat price on par with Japan and western Europe is globalisation result, soon Australian will be gently forced to eat insects and cane toads for protein.

I'll take a pass thanks

Recently on Masterchef (a judges favourite who shouldn't have won) kept topping her dishes, including ice cream with ants. Black and green ants. Every time she brought out the ants the internet went wild and not in a good way lol.

Do you trust butchers for your meat?

The last time I went to a butcher -
the steak was nice and red when looking through the window
in the serving area and he wrapped it up for me.
I unwrapped it before I left the shop and the meat was all gray underneath -
not red – and didn't smell very good.
I gave it back to him and got something else for my money.
I think they sprayed preservative on top but not underneath the steak.

In the supermarket it's all vacuum packed in clear plastic with a use by date -
and I can see all sides of it before buying.
I don't trust butchers – you never know how long
that meat has been sitting in the window and
how many flies have landed on it.
