>They don't eat lamb, and prefer grain-fed beef

That really has as much to do with cost as anything. Grass-fed beef can be twice the price of grain-fed, and lamb's definitely not cheap, either.



[shrug] depends on where you are. I have an ad somewhere for a local farm (Minnesota) selling grass fed beef for under $3 lb if you buy 1/4 animal or more.

No way the corn-fed supermarket stuff can touch that price!


I'm surprised it's not corn-fed beef - corn's a lot cheaper.


Corn is a grain.


Sorry, read that backwards (grass vs. grain). My mistake.
