This piece of dogshit doesn't understand how food pricing works I guess. "Cheap cuts of meat" isn't a thing. Ask anyone who used to buy oxtail or goat or marrow on the cheap how much it costs now. If you start speaking out pro liver and then the Goop lady agrees it'll be up 300% in a week

RFK Jr. suggests Americans can more easily afford groceries if they start eating liver instead of beef: "Most of the cheap cuts of meat are very inexpensive. ... You can buy liver"

Literally trying to gentrify offal because their ideas don't work in practice.

yeah I love when I see people refer to chuck roast as “inexpensive cut of meat” was maybe true in the 90s? Same with brisket or anything that was cheaper than a strip steak in 1992

No no you don't understand RFK is talking about liver that you cut out of roadkill on I-84

Ответ для David Ambaras

The only way to get truly authentic brain worms.

I'd assume it's a market manipulation grift, but RFK has been pursuing his offal policies for years

Ответ для Jesse Wolfhagen

One of the few things I agree with him on is that we should be eating the organ meats too. Ideally, in the proportion of total dietary meat consumption that they exist in the animal, bc that’s how things worked for subsistence hunters.

Ответ для Redshift

But we live in a very different world and “just eat liver if ground beef is too expensive” isn’t the thing I said.

Lots more not-liver than liver in a cow. The man is a moron.

Wings were cheap at the bar because they were almost literally garage

Cheap cuts of meat, LMAO. Even the fattiest pound of hamburger is $7. Ham hocks, which I grew up using to flavor soup, are over $6/pack. The cheapest meat on offer now is a Costco $5 rotisserie chicken and you can't pay for that with EBT bc it's hot

Liver is like 2% of an edible cow and like 80% of the rest of it is beef

Even dried beans are jumping up in price. And Carrots. Besides, nobody wants to subsist on beans, carrots and potatoes or rice. I already did “college kid” I don’t plan to repeat that menu.

He's such a liar!!! What a freaking bad argument this is. Who falls for this BS?

Not to mention that most doctors recommend you eat liver once a week at most, since it is so high in vitamin A and copper that it can be harmful if eaten more often.

This is a big "let them eat cake" moment, but I'm sure the media will not report it that way

Good luck getting your kids to eat liver

Also, most of the cheap cuts of meat are inexpensive? I'm pretty sure all cheap cuts are inexpensive, that's what the word means!

I miss when skirt steak was cheap.

Ответ для Alejandra Caraballo

Everyone stay away from my hangar steak

Ответ для Alejandra Caraballo

the mythical year of 2007, when skirt steak and oxtails were 6.99 a pound....

Also why is this their answer to the affordability crisis? Are any of their cronies willing to give up their extravagant lifestyles?

Ответ для Ashley Burns

I mean, they've been arguing bootstraps and avocado toast and buy cheaper cars and go on local vacations my entire life. They always make not paying you enough your fault

I was the chef at a white tablecloth steakhouse in North Carolina and tried to put house made ravioli with oxtail on the menu as a special and the owner told me it was “poor people food” despite the fact it would’ve sold for $18.99. I was later fired for not making margin.

I'm sorry, I think I'd rather listen to the Kennedy about how to survive while poor

Every single time a YouTuber does a eat this cheap cut or meat instead video I cringe. Someday someone is gonna do it another pork blade chops and I'll have to go hunt influencers.

“…and look at all those squirrels out there, just free for the taking! The exercise you’ll get hunting them down can save you a fortune on gym membership, too.”

yeah, most “cheap cuts” were only ever cheap because people didn’t want them. Increase demand and you realize a cow has a whole lot more chuck meat than flank steak or tongue or tail or liver.

Provincial French cooking was having a moment in the late 00s and sweetbreads and other organ meat went through the roof in no time. Totally fucked so many restaurants. Margins in that business are razor thin and your options are either take it off the menu or blast your diners with the upcharge.

Ответ для Coach Finstock

Tangent: "sweetbreads" are the worst named food for what they are.

Ответ для Corey Rayburn Yung

"Black pudding" is in second place.

Ответ для Corey Rayburn Yung

Truly. I refused to eat blood pudding in South Africa. Went to Ireland and oh hey this black pudding stuff is quite nice. What do you mean it’s blood pudding!

Ответ для Paul Watson 🌍

That was my experience with morcilla in Spain, hah. I didn't want to try blood pudding, but was handed a charcuterie plate with morcilla and had no clue.

Ответ для Corey Rayburn Yung

I was amused to find out what Rocky Mountain Oysters are. Not that I have a problem with them--just the euphemism. Take the bull by the horns and call it like it is.

Ответ для Corey Rayburn Yung

When you have a minute, look up "bheja fry". Most people love it, until they find out what it is.

Ответ для Corey Rayburn Yung

Counterpoint: Prairie Oysters.

Ответ для Raffi Melkonian

Beat me to it by 55 seconds!!!

Ответ для Raffi Melkonian

Oh, that's another good one. It's kind of an oxymoron, though (which should give you a hint).

Ответ для Raffi Melkonian

Yeah, I was going to say "Rocky Mountain Oysters". Same thing.

Ответ для Raffi Melkonian

Had to look that up and that is like a Bloody Mary with a raw egg??

Ответ для Corey Rayburn Yung

Don't think "thymus gland" would cut it in the menu. Fucking delicious, mind you.

Ответ для Coach Finstock

meat market volatility during the run of hannibal

Ответ для Coach Finstock

oxtails went from 2 to 4 bucks a pound 2000-2015. now it's like 14 but the city smells delicious.

Ответ для Coach Finstock

Also, cooking organ meat is very different from cooking lean meat (which is different from cooking fatty meat) and most families aren’t in a position to Le Cordon Bleu themselves up to speed.

Ответ для Coach Finstock

Ответ для Xtine

And beef heart. I used to make beef heart chili moderately often. Chop it small-bite-size and slow cook it in an acidic broth (like for chili), the texture comes out great! But then organ meats got trendy and beef hearts got expensive.

Ответ для Redshift

That sounds absolutely delicious! I love any kind of chili. I like to use beef tongue for tacos, but it is just so expensive now, I wait for sales or a special occasion. It used to be hard to find because no one wanted it and I’d have to go to a Brazilian or Asian specialty market to buy it.

Ответ для Xtine

It’s really good! Heart is very firm and chewy typically, but that just means it maintains its structure under slow-cooking, it gets tender enough to chew easily without going mushy. My other chili protip is, add some cacao powder. Trust me, it’s amazing. Grounds the acidity and heat perfectly!

Ответ для Redshift

Thanks for the suggestions, I am thinking heart and tongue are sort of similar in texture. I will def try the beef heart chili with the cacao (I love mole), great idea!!

Ответ для Coach Finstock

I can imagine. It’s not like you can get more than one liver from a single cow.

Ответ для Coach Finstock
Ответ для Shai Hulud 🇺🇸 & 🇳🇬 & 🇮🇳

Nothing! It's my favorite! But it used to be cheap and now it isn't.

Ответ для Coach Finstock

Yeah, it ain't cheap. I buy mine at Costco--it's frozen, but works out to $5/lb. That's about 1/3 the price at my local butcher, but you have to buy it in a 15 lb box.

Ответ для Coach Finstock

If you have a picky eater and the only protein they will eat is dinosaur shaped chicken nuggets, taking a chance on liver is foolish. And, yes, I know - you work with your child so they will eat a variety of food. But in the meantime, they need some protein.

My god oxtail becoming a fucking "thing" was one of the many worst turns the internet could take.

The first thing I never ate again after moving out of my mom’s house was liver. I will never eat liver especially after learning that the government pushed it on my grandma during WWII in order to give troops the real meat.

Wings are always my favorite example of this. Originally a discard product, it wasn't that long ago that dirt-cheap wings at bars were a thing, and now even at a grocery store they're priced at or above common chicken cuts. This reply brought to you by depression over the death of 25c wing nights

I resent the super rich telling us to buy cheap. So insulting

Ответ для Kygosi

the part that infuriates me the most is that this advice might work on an individual level, but it *can't* work on a societal level. If everybody starts buying "cheap cuts", then they will *have* to go up in price! There's no such thing as a "tripe-only cow" to raise as livestock

Yo, last time I saw a price on oxtail it was pushing $11/lb!

The only way I can eat liver is with catsup and bacon. There goes my saving money on meat.

Ответ для I'm not a bot. DON'T PUT ON THE INTERNET THAT I'M A BOT!

Guanciale is such a wonderful way to add big flavor on the cheap. Secret weapon!

Does RFK Jr think they just throw away everything that can’t be served at a BBQ?

My question is: this is pretty much a literal "let them eat cake" moment from the GOP, so where are the Dems blasting this bullshit from megphones & calling it out?

Ответ для John Lieske

FactPost is run by the Democrats

Ответ для Cliff Pervocracy

If so that's a pleasant change

this is exactly what happened to brisket. smart people through time and dedication figured out how to make cow chest delicious, and now it’s tripled in price.

Ответ для good kid DAAD city

Yes brisket is a perfect example

Ответ для Coach Finstock

Chicken wings used to be dirt cheap too. Now I sometimes see skinless chicken breast for less.

I don't think he understands supply and demand... make everyone buy the "cheap" cuts and they are no longer cheap, that's how it works. Ugh.

this is the bullshit you hear from people who have no idea what anything costs beause they have so much money it doesn't matter

Ответ для Catbus

Ответ для Catbus

To be fair he doesn’t say what kind of liver *shudders*

Him and Trump - when I hear them talking I literally start screaming in a complete rage. They talk like someone going for a world record in "the most ignorant thing you have ever heard" category.
