We still say around this ranch, " A black hide can hide a multitude of sins." Here's to the next great trend in beef marketing. Hope all is well with you and yours, buddy.John Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12916914939178594176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8970679145299626478.post-11321436493277674902017-05-31T21:28:20.212-06:002017-05-31T21:28:20.212-06:00Having spent 40 years in the ad business, I can ho...Having spent 40 years in the ad business, I can honestly say I know it is a rare bird who will admit to being influenced by advertising; most deny it vociferously. Still, a goodly number of us seem to be willing to believe that the color of hair follicles on a cow does make its meat taste different.

It is a pretty good gimmick, I suppose, but that's what it is--a gimmick. writer Rod Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07466823137099536809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8970679145299626478.post-39788776510092426262017-05-31T18:05:00.611-06:002017-05-31T18:05:00.611-06:00What?

Our mountain cows taste different according to what they are eating, not the pigment in their hair follicles. But my hat is off to the men in offices that think in terms of ones and zeros and billboards.

When I was a girl, it was black angus; now it's come around again. I thought the important thing was beef to bone ratio, but my dad was the cattleman, not me!Vicky Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06351058753278492695noreply@blogger.com
