That's it. If there are really people out there that are concerned about their dog's cholesterol level we need to nuke this planet from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

Your dog wants wiener therapy.

After reading the primary comment, I find myself with a strong desire to receive additional fellatio. How strange.

yes, but will it make him juicier and his fur more luxurious?

I'd pay it

My dog eats vegetarian dry dog food.

Best friend!! He's my only friend.

Oh heck, I wouldn't pay that much for my steak.

... which is supplemented heavily with meat based proteins sprayed onto the kibble before extrusion. And if it's not, your dog is dying a slow death.

\the more you know

theres no need for this shiat......i picked up 2 t bones from my butcher last week and they were farkin amazing....and it cost me 30 bucks....i get a discount but even at 20 bucks a steak thats a steal......take your precious cow and shove it up your precious ass

Please advise.

Newsflash - Some things might cost more than other similar things, depending on their perceived quality and scarcity.

Will it work if I put bacon on it?

I don't know, I really don't see the point of spending $200 on a steak. I know it cost a shiatload to export/import raise and so on. but it just seems too inflated. There is plenty of very good Steak for less.

/unless this is Tom Brokaw reporting.

And I'm quite sure all those folks eating their $45 steaks will take another chunk of their discretionary income and donate it to a soup kitchen or food pantry.

(Or am I just bitter that my budget precludes a $45 steak?)

Wait ... there are ARTICLES?

Dogs are omnivores and do well on a vegetarian diet.

And yet... gas costs too much...

Abe Vigoda's Ghost: *Looks at comments*

Do most farkers not even read the linked articles?

Apparently not... and I thought that was part of the experience...

As far as the overpriced meat goes. It is analogous to wine. Good wine is significantly and noticeably better than average wine but great fine wines are typically to complex to be appreciated at a level equal to their price point.

A steak from the local chain grocery may be OK and a good cut of meat from a local butcher who makes his entire living off of good publicity from selling high quality meat will be a lot better (try it some time and you will agree) but the $45.00 steak from these sacred cows will not be 3 times better. Hell - half of the asshats out there will overcook it or dump A-1 on it etc.

A picture of Akaushi beef. Where to buy it.

...Hmmm...

I think they should crossbreed them with bison only. And then cross them with water buffalo for milk production. Then I, for one, would welcome our eugenic supercow overlords.

/KHAAAAAAANNN!!

My dog is having epileptic seizsures, now on Phenobarital and driving me crazy with the constant pissuing and whining. Any suggestions?

TripSixes: Dogs are omnivores and do well on a vegetarian diet.

um.... no. Dogs are quite carnivorous. The carbohydrate-based caloric needs of a dog are incredibly low in relation to protein and fat-based caloric needs. Somewhere around +/- 15-20%, as opposed to +/-50% from fat, +/-30% from protein.

Try actually working your dog, and you'll see the dog fall apart on a vegetarian diet. Maybe your common house dog that plays fetch a half-hour a week can survive on it, but that's about it. Even a moderate workload can't be sustained by a vegetarian diet. And please don't confuse your dog running around the park as exercise.

Don't expect him to repay the "favor" by saving you from a fire though.

I'll skip the $65 steak and stick to my $3.00 bottle of olives, thanks.

If he were really my best friend then he would get my beer without drinking half of it.

mephisto6: I'd spend a little more on a recommended bottle of wine I'd never tried. Sometimes you get burned, other times you get a 'holy shiat' moment.

TOO true!

A $30 - $50 bottle of wine is a crap shoot (even with a recommendation since personal palate has so much to do with it) but WOW does it pay off big when you find the right one!!!

The high price is only a product of the cows' scarcity atm. Once the herd gets expanded enough, the price will likely drop to just a little over the price of Angus.

Whats the difference between a whino and a wineologist?
20 dollars a bottle.

How do these cattle compare with the Japanese Wagyu cattle? Wagyu are tender because of extensive marbling (fat) but are they as healthy? Wagyu cross sold in the states runs about $65-70 per 8 oz steak. I got a couple of steaks for Christmas and fired up the grill in a snowstorm to cook them. Very, very good meat.

They have a small cookout package for 95 bux. Enough to get the flavor that will linger, haunting you for weeks until you buy more, which only will make it worse until all your income goes to buying the evil exotic beef that simultaneously ruins your life and makes you unnaturally healthy.

Unfortunately, in order to do it justice, you might need to buy a new gas grill with a really hot burner so it sears the outside quick enough to only warm the delicious, melty fat inside so that it is ready to flow over the tongue a mere moment after the juicy flesh meets your ravenous mouth.

I believe these are Wagyu

Yes

Thanks but no thanks. My dog couldn't tell the different between chicken and pork, and now those snob liberals want to convince me to feed him $65 steak?

This shows how out of touch liberals are with the regular common sense people. Maybe if they got real jobs they'd have something else to focus on besides dogs. Stupid is as stupid does. This is why I don't read newspapers anymore.
