Is there anything better than the smell of a steak on the barbeque? A pot roast simmering for hours on the stove until it is falling apart, melting in your mouth with rich brown gravy? Beef is one of the most versatile foods we feed our family. It is centerpiece of the meals that we associate with Americana gourmet; hamburgers, chicken fried steak, chili, stew and, of course, Mom’s meatloaf. The amount of beef consumed in the United States averages 65.8 pounds per person, per year. (http://www.beefusa.org/newsindustrystatistics.aspx) Beef holds the number two spot among the most popular proteins. (Poultry is first only if you combine both chicken and turkey). American demand for beef has increased more than 15% since 1998. 8 out of 10 Americans eat beef at home regularly. Considering its popularity, palatability and adaptability we at Celebrity Foods hope to provide a one stop educational resource for beef consumers. As we debunk the myths, explore the history and provide the facts, we hope you enjoy your stay.
