The organic beef that we were talking about is Heartland Beef and can be purchased at the Lincoln Square Farmers market every Tuesday morning. Erica and I find it tastier and cheaper than what we can buy at Whole Foods. If you want to find out more about it, their web site is: www.heartlandmeats.com . You'll notice that the fat content of the beef is extremely low. More like you would expect for chicken than for beef.
Speaking of beef and chicken. Eric Schlosser, author of Fastfood Nation, has another book you might be interested in. It is called Chew on This. This is about the 37 day life of a pre-Chicken McNugget (Amazon.com review). The book is written for grades 6 - 9; so it could be an interesting read for you and some older children that you know.
