Can the butcher assure you that the animal hasn't been given an amount of chemicals that would be banned in the EU?

[–] Doctor_Satan@lemm.ee 2 points 6 days ago

Not really. It's weird. You kinda have to be familiar with the ranch that raises the beef, and the ones that don't use a ton of chemicals also don't advertise to the public. It's basically only available to small town folks who are "in the know" and boutique restaurants. This has been my experience, anyway. One of my exes comes from a cattle rancher family, so my sample size is tiny. Other people may have other experiences.
