Strange Factoids from the Freak Farm

Did you know?

We are told that farm animals are poor protein converters. That we put far more corn protein into a cow than we get out as meat. That we'd be better off not eating beef at all, but rather just eating the corn itself, because that corn would feed more people. BUT...cows are grass-eating animals. They do not naturally eat corn. COWS RAISED ON GRASS DO NOT REQUIRE ANY CORN PROTEIN. The cows convert the grass - which is indigestible to humans -- into protein. Allowing us to ALSO grow that feed corn, and eat it all ourselves.

Did you know?

We are told that there are only two sources of Omega 3 fatty acids -- fish oil and flax seed oil. BUT...GRASS-FED BEEF ALSO CONTAINS OMEGA 3 FATTY ACIDS.
