I'm with you, aem - I would never order it out unless I really knew
the diner well. At diners or restaurants, it's "mystery meat," and
often the cuts are so cheap that they are filled with inedible
gristle. The gravy covers all the nasties, so you don't know what
you're eating until it's too late.

I like my homemade country fried steak - and to the OP, there are
hundreds of things eaten every day by all of us that aren't
particularly healthy - that doesn't mean one can't indulge now and
then.

To clarify: I don't make it at home because I do not deep fry.
