This cracked me up. LOL. OTOH, if you buy fresh non-Cryo'd from a
different supplier, you'll likely get tenderloin with no additives
(like salt and water) and more pork flavor. You pays your money, you
takes your choice.

Me, I go to Safeway for pork, which is the only place around here
(besides the country lockers and meat markets) which sells non-Armour
pork.
