I bought 1/4 grass fed beef from my uncle and it was shit. Tasted like half spoiled milk. Fuck him and the rest of my family. I tried to eat it but ended up throwing a bunch of it away after it sat in my freezer for three years

Why do people say "gamey" is a bad taste? Every time i've eaten meat that was described as gamey, it's just been delicious.
>you might not like this phesant, it's a bit gamey
yeah it's fucking great. The game flavour is just good. It just tastes nice. Are people who complain just lying or are they actually retarded. You would never survive as a hunter gatherer. Oh this meat tastes too much like meat. Fuck you.

This has been my experience as well. At this point I just swap the word gamey for "flavor" and it basically works. It seems like for all the meat people eat most people don't even actually like meat at all, they hate the actual taste of meat.

Thank you. And may I add the meat that these tastelets like tastes like fucking cardboard. It's no surprise to me when the silicon valley faggots mush together cash crops to fake meat there are retards who actually think it tastes like "real" meat.

theres a reason farmers feed corn silage and its NOT because it's cheaper or easier than fucking grass and hay

[Anonymous No.17385703]

I'm from a small country where the cows are fed almost exclusively on grass, grass silage and shit like kale. The times I've tried imported corn fed beef it tasted horrible.
I think what's going on ITT is just that people are used to whatever they grew up with and are too autistic to enjoy different products, myself included.

Maybe some breeds of cows taste better being grass fed and some taste better with corn. The who knows what half breed/inbred cows my mom raised and fed a little bit of grain were nothing special but still way better than the fucking grass fed shit my uncle sold me

New Zealand. The imported stuff was Australian, so it didn't have to go very far. The Aussies use both feeds apparently but this was labelled as corn-fed specifically.

Im midwest and sell hay to a local farmer. They are raised in a pasture and eat grass and then hay in the summer. They are finished on corn. The beef tastes great. It has that greasy prime flavor

I hunt my own meat a lot and I think the only ‘game’ taste I don’t like is from an old male animal in heat or the strong taste from glands. It just smells/tastes in such a ay that makes me want to vomit. Happens in store bought lamb too if the butcher forgot to remove the glands.

>organically grass feed

Don't associate organic with grass fed. All cows where I live are grass fed. Doesn't make them "organic". To be organic you need some autistic audit to go through your farm and make sure you never sprayed a weed and never treated the cattle for worms. I share a fence with an organic place and the cattle always look like shit.

>New Zealand. The imported stuff was Australian, so it didn't have to go very far. The Aussies use both feeds apparently but this was labelled as corn-fed specifically.

Aussies do cattle a bit differently to us anon. A lot of it lives on huge outback stations and then brought in to finish on feed. They'd probably never finish properly out there, be too little cover on them. But would in some places, it's damn big country. They're also able to use hormones, a patch behind the ear which releases slowly, makes a steer have the same levels of hormones as a bull.

I have a horrible story about shooting a cow if anyone cares

[Anonymous No.17386906]

It's confusing when people point out gaminess or "shit taste" like it's new and I don't know what you're used to, but all whole/fresh meat always smells like shit from the animal it was taken from and this gets more true the closer to the bone you get. Roast chicken near the bone smells like a coop full of chicken crap. Beef smells like manure. Fish smells like fish shit under the generic familiar "fishy" smell the meat has that everyone focuses on. Once in a while I'll be having a steak dinner with someone and they comment on it tasting gamey, but to me it just tastes a slightly stronger version of normal.

Maybe my sense of smell is more sensitive or something, but if I try to explain this or point it out they think I'm crazy and don't notice it. The only time I see other people notice this is if it's stronger than usual for whatever reason. That seems to happen either when they eat the organs and liver especially, or if animal has been fed the diet it's supposed to eat and then they understand, if only for a moment. Humans are no exception; you are what you eat and whatever your diet is changes how you smell inside and out. Your tastebuds have merely had a glimpse of the truth of reality revealed to them is all.

That's really interesting. I had no idea there was a whole different dimension to taste that I've never experienced. Are there any upsides to this though or is it mostly just being aware of unpleasant, hidden tastes that others can't pick up on easily?

Biggest mob that I reared so far was 180. Looking to do autumn born ones as well so will take them twice a year. Take them right though to finishing. I'm not making veal anon, I'm raising proper beef cattle, and doing the hard part of rearing them so they don't get killed at 4 days old. A lot of the big players which used to rear these calves and sell them weaned are retiring, where I live. And a lot of beef farmers can't be arsed with feeding calves.
