Texas Viking Fest

We had wonderful time at Texas Viking Festival Yule Celebration this year. I got to pick up some new armor and watched some wonderful bagpipe performances. The Scottish Highland games were amazing, the kilted athletes did not disappoint with their contest of strength. The full contact knight fights were just brutal. So much fun. And the mead so much mead, Skol.

Trump suggest limiting beef imports but what about MCOOL

Why are we not seeing more media coverage about MCOOL?

 I don't know why with President Trump making headlines about not importing beef. The newspapers and other news outlets are not covering the Mandatory Country of Origin Labeling issue.

The American consumer deserves the right to know if the beef their eating was born, raised, and processed in USA.

The American rancher deserves the right to have their USA produced ground beef without foreign beef mixed in on groceries stores shelves.

The petition at www.demandusabeef.com   to reinstate MCOOL has over 380,000 signatures in less than a month. Signed by both cattle producers and consumers alike.

I am unsure if you can trust what the NCBA (National Cattlemans Beef Association) has to say about MCOOL, they dont speak for cattle ranchers or consumers. They are obligated to  represent the major packers members of their organization who benefit from not having mandatory label on beef. 

This is causing a quickly growing conflict within the NBCA between packers who want to buy cattle as cheap as possible and cattle ranchers who want a fair price for their cattle.
