Brits need to get over their beef with US meat

Published August 7, 2017 4:01am ET



I eat steak whenever I’m in the United States. Your steaks are bigger, juicier, and more tender than those I can buy in Europe. Why? Partly because American cattle are given hormones that are banned in the EU.

Now, you might prefer the idea of unadulterated beef, raised only on rich green grass. Plenty of people in Europe say they do, and good luck to them. No one is going to force them to eat anything they don’t want. But why should they impose their taste on the rest of us?
