The large commercial slaughterhouses produce the diseased swill that's flogged off on the little people and their pets at their local supermarket. It's not even properly butchered, let alone aged. They take perfectly good steers and shoot them full of poisons and push them through the factory to get the most weight out the other end. People would probably be better off eating road kill, at least it's real meat.

It is really disgusting and a terrible waste.
