How do you know that deer wasn't tappin into the corn fields?

The deer I hunt are on private land that is surrounded by state land that has no corn fields. They eat the Alfalfa that is planted for them.

We feed the deer on our land just a little corn.
It's great for making them stand in one place while we feed them bullets.

(and no, they aren't the least bit tame... they just like their corn enough to take risks coming out into the open.

)

What are these "crackers" and "cookies" you speak of?

Have you ever grocery shopped at Wal-Mart? Whenever my wife and I would go we would always talk shit about the contents of other people's carts. To see a family of 4 with a cart packed with chips, sodas, fruit juices, ice cream and maaaaaybe a carton of eggs was the norm. That is how the average American that makes less than $30k a year shops....and they do so generally without a thought about it. I mean, it is really disgusting to see cart after cart full of absolute shit food.

The thing is, the "cheap" foods aren't really cheap at all. I mean sure, you saved $2 by buying chips instead of apples....but now you've got 3 prescriptions to fill every month and you're eating much more food than a normal healthy person would because the shit you're buying isn't satisfying your body's requirements.

Its like buying a cheap car that needs something fixed every week and ends up costing you 3x as much in the end.

Whole Foods is a convenient source of grass-fed beef. I know they have organic / free range chicken but I don't know what it's fed. Trader Joe's has good stuff too.

Grass-fed beef tastes totally different. I can't see how caged animals would have the same muscle development that free-range animals do.

And that's another thing. If its true that grass-fed meat is demonstratably better, I'm willing to bet it's mostly because grass-fed cows are allowed to roam free, thus burning fat, getting some sun and fresh air, and preventing their muscles from atrophy. It isn't because grass is sooooooooooooo much healthier than corn.

Uh yeah because they can also use grass as a cheap sweetener...

Again, you guys are brining HFCS into this.........its a totally separate argument. Does HFCS suck, yes, we get that..........But a cow's body doesn't manufacture HFCS from the corn it eats. HFCS is man-made.

THERE IS NO FUCKING HFCS IN BEEF.

Right but it causes the cows to be fatter, making the beef have a higher fat content.
