This week on Let's Get Real, Chef Erica Wides helps listeners virtually meet their meat. Hear about how she worked on a grass-fed lamb farm and learned the in and outs of natural animal processing and how much different the pasture raised animals are treated than the typical grain and corn fed industrial stuff. Find out why corn fed meat products don't have the right balance of Omega3 and Omega6 and how things like paste soy and ammoniated beef product find their way into the commodity product. Today's episode was brought to you by Heritage Foods USA's No Goat Left Behind Project.
