> That makes sense if grass-fed beef is the only option. At this point in time, there's no reason to buy grass-fed - well, unless you actually prefer tough, strange tasting, beef.
Also, not if you're used to grinding your own beef before cooking, like with brisket. (Unless you finely chop taco meat before serving and filling a tortilla or taco shell, like they do in food trucks - and no, its certainly not 'strange tasting' to us here on the mainland). You wouldn't ground corn-fed beef. Would you?
