    BTW, don't bother with any Sainsburys' steak. We do most of our shopping there and we've tried every variety (Finest, X-day matured, Organic) and they're all rubbish.

    We wouldn't even try the local Tesco because we know one of the farmers who supplies a lot of their "beef". It's a dairy herd!!!

    Steak is the only thing we get from Asda, with packs of beer to make up the minimum order for home delivery. Most of the time we only get the beer but that's ok.

        That assumes I care what happens to me or the rest of the human race.

        It isn't Covid 19 which is the virus on this planet. We are.

          Spoken like a townie. How do you suppose you get a cow to produce milk? Beef is a by-product of milk production.

              I do believe, as human life spans are quite short, that the 'guff' which I heartlessly refer to will take a lot longer to present itself than a clogged artery.

              Maybe polluted air is a close second as it seems some people aren't born with sturdy enough lungs.

                I think one poker game every 18 months is probably OK.

                  I think you should try and limit it to once a decade.

                      No, sorry. I'll use sirloin if I'm doing a Thai or Malaysian curry, but the only steak I leave whole to cook is the fillet.
