HOW NOW, HAPPY COW?

On a fairly regular basis, Grinning Planet throws cow pies at “industrial agriculture”—those massive, corporate farming operations—while singing the praises of small farms and sustainable, non-chemical agriculture. It all sounds good: who doesn’t prefer the idea of varied, natural, lush fields to endless miles of genetically engineered corn stalks, and who can’t see that happy barnyard animals are better off than sad creatures trapped in cages, pens, and feed lots.

About Beef Cattle By Jason Chavis
Beef cattle are raised primarily for the production of meat and have a long history in the United States and around the world. They are distinguished from other cattle because they are not raised for dairy products. Beef is the name of the muscle tissue from the animal, although additional parts of the animal are frequently used.
Function
1. Beef cattle are primarily used for meat. It has come to be one of the principle sources of protein for the Americas, Australia and Europe as well as other parts of the world. The muscle of beef cattle is generally cut into roasts, steaks, ribs or ground into ground beef. Blood can be utilized for a variety of blood sausages. The heart, tail, tongue and tripe also can be eaten. The brain is usually not used in geographic areas of bovine spongiform encephalopathy, commonly known as mad cow disease.
