I agree, mostly. I try to follow a "you are what you eat eats" approach. Most meat, beef, pork, chcken, etc, are grain fed to some degree. I blieve you are much better off eating grass fed meats. Greass feeding promotes omega 3 fats while grain fed promotes omega 6's. our 20th+ century bodies are much higher in omega 3s than previous generations. It's a theory that this is also a cause of heart disease.

I have a local organic butcher who deals soley in grass fed meats. We buy 90% of our meat and eggs there. They actually have taste!
