CORN FED BEEF OR GRASS FED?

I recently received a link to an article on seven foods that are bad for you. One of these was corn fed beef. The author posits that cattle evolved eating grass and not corn. He wants to eliminate all corn feeding of beef a rather extreme position. This would mean more free range beef, already very expensive. See...there are other extremists other than global warmers.

Does this come into conflict with the global warmers, some of whom might also be labeled food extremists? Of course it does. Just because someone is a kook in one area doesn't mean they are rational in other areas. Global warming adherents have long wanted to eliminate cattle as a food source because of their flatulence. As cited in another article herein (click here for the link) I explained, after an interview with a dairy farmer, that dairy cattle are not allowed to eat grass because grass does cause much flatulence in the cow. While producing flatulence the cattle produce less milk. Thus the dairy farmers are not so interested in reducing greenhouse gases in cattle as they are in producing more milk.

How does this cause conflict in the beliefs of glabal warmer/food extremists? They want more natural meat (i.e. grass fed). A good thing to them. Grass feeding causes more greenhouse gases. A bad thing for global warmers. So they are in violation of their beliefs in either case.
