Gov. Pete Ricketts designates May as “Beef Month” in Nebraska

[basquebromance]

i would love to eat beef with Governor Pete and his dynamic wife at the gov's mansion if they invite me and then we can do stuff that can not be discussed here

to be serious, did you know there are over 3.5 times more cattle than people in Nebraska?

According to the Nebraska Beef Council, Jan. 2022 figures show that NE continues to have far more cattle than people. There are neatly 6.8 million cattle in the state!

Do what??

kill a big animal beast with your bare hands then take a picture with it, like Lesnar did

why well-raised meat is good for you and good for the planet:

Meat and animal fat are essential for our bodies
A sustainable food system cannot exist without animals
A vegan diet may destroy more life than sustainable cattle farming
Regenerative cattle ranching is one of our best tools at mitigating climate change

I drive past a farm where they have a lot of cattle regularly. Always wondered what they are thinking, they look really deep in thought and so peaceful.

I guess they are just mellow, and waiting for their individual opportunities to matriculate at Bovine University.

I pay people for the slaughter, why get bloody hands?

Are you one of those tree huggers from Oregon?

i hear ya...Congressman Don Young of Alaska, who died recently, used to kill bears with his bare hands, and would brag to members of Congress about it. now Sarah Palin is running for his seat!

Ditto, although the one time I got involved in dissecting a food animal, it was fun putting my anatomy and physiology studies to good use. I used to work in cardiology and cutting up a deer heart was fascinating.

my dream is to live in Seattle...but never been to Oregon

Well, I'm sure if the truth be known, it was his bare hands on a large caliber rifle.
You know how bear hunters are with their "Bear Stories"?

You're 25 years to late for Seattle.....sadly. It was a beautiful city at one time.

My condolences. It has been several years since Seattle was worth living in.

Edit: Meister said it better.

I had an unpleasant experience with kidney stones and cut back drastically on beef and other meat after learning that vegetarians seldom get kidney stones.

"National Beef appealed to Kansas Secretary of Agriculture Mike Beam to muscle the union on its behalf... In Nebraska, Governor Pete Ricketts directed departments not to release Covid-19 case statistics at meat plants"

U.S. Meat Plants Are Deadly as Ever, With No Incentive to Change

The industry has long been functionally unregulated. With OSHA asleep on the job, the pandemic has put workers at even higher risk.

Real bacon is manna.

Some beef bacon I tried in Kuwait was not too bad...if you want a teaser taste of it...

"Bacon flavored" things are generally shit.
