Meat. Butchers used to get half beeves and cut what you wanted.
Now it all comes in cryopaks and the meat counter attendants - they

Seen a USDA stamp on a piece of meat recently? Try asking for a flat
bone sirloin.

My grocery has a butcher shop, and will make custom cuts on request.

I get USDA Prime beef at Costco.

Count your blessings.

BTW, did you know there are grades within the grades? For example, there is
US Choice but there is also US Choice+ and US Choice-. Same thing in the
other grades.

Want to bet which your local super market is selling as USDA
Select/Choice/Prime?
