I like a Filet Mignon or Tenderloin, but often they lack flavor, and also being a muscle inside the body cavity and being right next to the kidneys, they can have an unpleasant taste sometimes. At 25 bucks a pound and up beef tenderloin IMO is not a good buy. It is the most expensive part of any animal too BTW. I look for reduced ones and also cheap ones with a bacon wrap are a good deal for the price. But for a tenderloin you get what you pay for. These are genuine tenderloin steaks, but from lesser quality and lesser grade beef. The following is from my local grocer's ad:
Rib-eye is the king of all meats.

T-bone steak. I used to love it, never eat it now. I can't remember when I last saw it on a Swedish menu. Last time I had it was many years ago, in Italy - Bistecca fiorentina with a slice of lemon.
I prefer the porterhouse.
But CP and Trev are right, rib-eye is awesome on the grill.
Bistecca fiorentina - I had to look this up, but it sounds delish. 🙂

Originally posted by SuzianneIt was lovely, particularly on that occasion. I was with a friend in Florence for two weeks to study Italian, and we managed to get lost in the city in search of a restaurant. After much walking we found ourselves outside of the absolute centre, the streets were empty and so were our stomachs. We had no map and nobody to ask - and then all of a sudden we were lucky to find this restaurant and were served a delicious Bistecca fiorentina. I didn't know how it was prepared until I googled it a while ago.

Originally posted by redbadgerFirst of all one can milk a cow without having to eat it afterwards and from this cow one gets yogurt, milk and cheese, kill the cow and you get a rather large messy carcass. Secondly there are many chesses which do not contain rennet

and thirdly here is another list of beers which do not use said finings and you will notice that Badger tanglefoot just happens to be on that list,
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/geraint.bevan/Vegetarian_beers.html
here is an email from the manufacturers of said beer,
thank you for your email regarding our ales and their suitability for vegetarians.
Our bottled range is suitable for vegetarians but our cask ales are not. This is due to the way in which the beer is produced and filtered, animal finings are used in production of our cask ales, but a different process is used for the brewing of the bottled ales.
I would advise that unless it states very clearly on the bottles, suitable for vegetarians you would have to assume they are not suitable, unless you contact the brewers direct as you have with us. On our bottles we are currently reviewing having this put on the labels.
Our bottled range include Tanglefoot, Badger Original, Golden Champion, Golden Glory Fursty Ferret and Blandford Fly. You are able to view the rest of our beers on our website www.badgerales.co.uk
Hope this is of some help!
Kind Regards
