After the menu describes the meat and weight, at the end it says pastured. What does “pastured” mean? Can we not buy fresh butchered meat at the store? Or is it strictly grass fed…not corn? If so, why?
I’m new to this, sorry.
Hi, csander64. “Pastured” means the animal was able to roam in a pasture and eat its natural diet of shrubbery, grasses, and worms – it is indeed different from corn-fed. The reason is that its diet affects the meat composition later, particularly the fats, and pastured content is generally lower in certain saturated fats, and higher in omega-3 polyunsaturated fats. If pastured is not an option for you, then fresh is absolutely better than processed.
