I lived in Ireland for a year and I couldn't figure out for a while why I didn't like the flavor of the beef. And the mutton and pork mostly had the same flavor, too. Something just a little different, I couldn't put my finger on it, but it always let me down.
Then someone told me when I mentioned this that it was because they don't grain-feed their livestock before slaughtering them.
Well, wow!
To be honest I never really THOUGHT about it. And I'm sure it's all what you are used to, what you grew up with, etc.,...
But... there's a REASON we started grain feeding our livestock, right? I mean, because we are able to grow enough grain to DO it, but it also helps them put on weight AND taste better, too!
At least to me.
