And I do not agree with him.

And, I will NOT eat something that tastes like shit just because it's
"good for me".

Life is too short for that.

But do you grill or fry Oxtails as a steak? ;-)

Interestingly enough, around here, chuck roasts and steaks are cheaper
than Ox tails...

They have become a luxury item. So has Lengua (tongue).
If you like Ox tail stew, try some calves feet sometime. Seriously.
Very good flavor and loaded with nutrition.

It might give you something you are lacking in your diet that has been
making you such a bitch lately.
