I favor pork over beef mainly because I like the taste. I buy it at our
local big Mom & Pop Italian market. They have an actual meat department
and since Italians are big on pork they always have a great selection of
fresh product at good prices.

The embalmed Walmart meat is no bargain because you are paying for the
extra weight of the embalming solution.
