hile it doesn't label the meat as "grass-fed", a visit to their website says that their cows are grass-fed. Although their website does not sell their ground beef product. Thoughts?
Organic does not equal grass fed. If it reads organic but not grassfed it simply means that the food given to the cow was certified organic (organic corn and sileage) and he does not have any inoculations. This means it might have been a in a CAFO situation..possibly. Agreed that if it does not say grass fed it's not grassfed. I agree with Melissa that grass fed is a value added term and is NOT regulated. They can see grass for a week and be considered grass fed (BTW not ALL cattle in the USA are grassfed, I disagree with that. UNLESS you are count sileage and even sileage can also be triticale, and/or wheat). Even "organic" cows may never see grass as you would vision it in the field.
On a side note, Costco also sells ground Bison at $8.50/lbs. Can bison be force fed grains, or do they only eat grass?
Bison are VERY close to the same as cows in biology and in the feeds and preferences. Apply all the same terms of use and selection of product for bison as to cows
