A local place started selling A5 grade Japanese raised Wagyu. My wallets calling me an idiot for even considering it, but my stomach feels betrayed. Those are some fine looking steaks. Maybe I'll be rich one day. Maybe I'm rich enough today. I can't decide. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2021/03/full-64646-286775-waygu.jpg)

Why so cheap? Too fat for me.

My Cardiologist would have a heart attack over one of those.

Why so cheap? Too fat for me. My Cardiologist would have a heart attack over one of those. I'm told the fat is very different than typical beef cattle. It's a healthy fat like salmon. High in high omega 3 and omega 6 content and less saturated fat than regular beef cattle. I've had A5 once at a restaurant that someone else paid for, it's twice the price when they cook it for you. It tasted like no other steak I've ever had.

Right from the National Library of Medicine.This review addresses the characteristics and health benefit of highly marbled Wagyu and Hanwoo beef. Marbling of Wagyu and Hanwoo beef has been increased in Japan and Korea to meet domestic consumer preferences. Wagyu and Hanwoo cattle have high potential of accumulating intramuscular fat (IMF) and producing highly marbled beef. The IMF content varies depending on the feeding of time, finishing diet, and breed type. IMF increases when feeding time is increased. The rate of IMF increase in grain-fed cattle is faster than that in pasture-fed cattle. Fatty acid composition are also different depending on breeds. Highly marbled Wagyu and Hanwoo beef have higher proportions of monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) due to higher concentrations of oleic acid. MUFAs have little effect on total cholesterol. They are heart-healthy dietary fat because they can lower low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol while increasing high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol. Clinical trials have indicated that highly marbled beef does not increase LDL-cholesterol. This review also emphasizes that high oleic acid beef such as Wagyu and Hanwoo beef might be able to reduce risk factors for cardiovascular disease

In tell everyone the same thing. The one I had was paid for. If you can get someone else to pay for it, it’s the best ribeye you will ever eat. But at that price it’s still just a ribeye. But every time I see them it makes me think twice

I got a couple like that back in the day when I paid $45 lb. It was soooo good, i might have to break down and buy that one. FWIW that's a pretty dang good price for A5 Waygu as heavily marbled as that one is.

If it’s good for the heart, maybe I should get the cardiologist to write a Rx, then get insurance to pay.
