Preservatives in Meat

All I can say is this, I ate those pork ribs and I enjoyed them. They were much leaner than the ones we used to buy from the regular grocery store and more importantly I had no after dinner problems - no bloating, no gas, nothing. Simply satisfaction.

I've now been looking into ways to buy organic meats in bulk, hoping it will make them a bit more affordable. I'm sold on the health benefits of eating organic products when possible, and already buy many organic veggies. But, to be honest the cost of organic meat can simply be prohibitive. I've found a bunch of farms that sell organic beef, but I'm hesitant to try it since my last experience with beef was anything but pleasant. Although, I realize that the organic beef might be a whole different story. I've also found a few farms that sell organic buffalo, lamb, and goat, which I might try. As of yet, I've not found anyone locally who sells organic pork. I plan to keep on looking and see what I can find. But in the meantime it sure is nice to have figured this out. I really think, though, that meat packaging should have to note when preservatives have been added just like other foods.
