They also mean that your family might be eating mystery meat, sold as something different than the product you think you bought.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/propertytransitionmedia.com\/?p=92\">More Brewpubs And Museums Won\u2019t Revive Cities Like Dallas, But Better Schools And More Cops Will<\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you drive to Justin Pettit\u2019s California ranch, out in the hills on the east side of Bakersfield, you\u2019ll pass truck after truck loaded with carrots. They stop just down the road, at processing plants run by food industry players like Bolthouse Farms.<\/p>\n<p>The giant Central Valley carrot processors end up with tons of waste, a mix of trimmings and rejected carrots that are too ugly for the supermarket. Pettit feeds those carrots to cows, finishing grass-fed beef with a sweet and moist crop that changes the flavor of the nutrient-dense meat. Beef cattle are usually finished \u2013\u00a0fattened for slaughter \u2013\u00a0with corn. No one else in the world does what Santa Carota Ranch does, giving them a unique product in a market driven by standardization and corporate mass production. And for now, after years of success and then years of crisis, you mostly can\u2019t buy their product. <\/p>\n<p>For Pettit, the story of what happened to Santa Carota is a story about the barriers to entry in protein markets, and the way those barriers limit supply and product differentiation. Entering the market for beef, he told The Federalist, is like \u201ctrying to merge into 80 mile-per-hour traffic on your bicycle.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Pettit began selling carrot-finished ground beef to a California restaurant chain before the pandemic. Food safety regulations effectively limit the number of beef processors, so Santa Carota\u2019s cows had to leave the Central Valley to be slaughtered in the industrial suburbs of Los Angeles. A processor stood between the supplier and the end user, taking orders from the restaurants and telling the rancher how many head of cattle to truck down to the slaughterhouse to meet the weekly demand.<\/p>\n<p>The story that follows is a set of contested allegations, challenged in court by the processor, and it looks like they\u2019re about to be tested in front of a jury. Barring a settlement, trial is scheduled for August. The processor, Sterling Pacific Meat Company, hasn\u2019t responded to a request for comment from The Federalist.<\/p>\n<p>As the restaurant chain consumed a growing amount of ground beef for its burgers, Santa Carota was left with the rest of the cow, the highest-quality cuts that don\u2019t go into the grinder. So they began selling carrot-finished ribeyes and other steaks to the fine dining industry, becoming a supplier to premium buyers like the Wynn hotel in Las Vegas. <\/p>\n<p>Then the orders for ground beef started drying up, Pettit says, or seemed to. The meat processor sent for fewer and fewer cows, and then called Pettit at the end of 2023 to say that they didn\u2019t need <em>any<\/em>. They already had enough Santa Carota product on hand to address the ongoing demand for ground beef from the restaurants.<\/p>\n<p>The losses cascaded: Fewer cattle being slaughtered for ground beef meant the loss of steaks to sell to the fine dining clients. So those orders started to disappear.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe couldn\u2019t kill cattle just for ribeye,\u201d Petit told The Federalist, sitting at a table next to the Santa Carota barn. \u201cAnd if you\u2019re sold out for so long, you\u2019re off the menu. Once you\u2019re on the menu, you\u2019ve got to fight to keep your spot on the menu.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Finally, at a meeting in suburban Los Angeles with executives at the restaurant chain that bought Santa Carota\u2019s ground beef for burgers, Pettit brought up the sharp decline in the orders. The people at the restaurant chain didn\u2019t know what he was talking about. Pettit says they showed him their purchase orders with the meat processor, which showed that the restaurants had received \u201cway more pounds of ground beef than us at Santa Carota had actually supplied.\u201d The gap between orders appeared to add up to half a million pounds of meat, at what was then a wholesale price averaging $3.40 a pound to the original supplier.<\/p>\n<p>Pettit could only see one possible explanation: \u201cThe only conclusion we could come to was that Sterling Pacific was providing product other than ours in the ground beef batches.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A grower creating a bespoke protein product has no direct control over the way his cows, or any other animal, become meat. The industry is built on the presence of a middleman, the processing companies. A rancher ships cows to the front of the slaughterhouse, and then meat comes out the back. What happens in between is an open question, and Pettit suspects that mixed product is far more common than consumers realize: An order for 10,000 pounds of certified Angus beef might be 7,000 pounds of Angus and 3,000 pounds of <em>whatever<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/propertytransitionmedia.com\/?p=90\">Are More People Going To Church Because Fewer Are Going To College?<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think that\u2019s happening across the board,\u201d Pettit told The Federalist. \u201cI\u2019ve talked to other producers that feel that\u2019s happening to them the same way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Federal inspectors from the USDA, assigned as a regular presence in processing facilities, check for food safety. They monitor for contamination. They don\u2019t regularly police brand differentiation and the sorting of product, which is primarily the responsibility of the processing company. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey get to guard their own henhouse,\u201d Pettit says.<\/p>\n<p>The answer, Pettit told The Federalist, is transparency through better industry practices: tracking, labeling, clear and provable information for consumers. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a lot of food safety laws, but there\u2019s a lot of loopholes in the labeling,\u201d Pettit says. \u201cAnd I feel that we have the technology now to run real-time audits. Where DOGE would do the flow of money, we need to be doing the flow of meat. I think that for these larger processors, we need to see how many pounds go into a program, and how many pounds go out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>You can read the USDA\u2019s current meat labeling standards here. They do allow inspectors to \u201ctake appropriate regulatory control action, such as product retention, when they identify misbranded product,\u201d but the current labeling regulations are largely built around labeling choices made by the industry. Federal regulators focus on \u201capproval of labels.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In recent weeks, another discussion in Congress has centered on a test version of Kentucky Republican Thomas Massie\u2019s PRIME Act, passed by the House recently as part of a larger farm bill and waiting for Senate action. If it passes, this legislation will allow for the creation of a limited number of new, smaller slaughterhouses that can process meat without USDA inspectors on site, relying on state and local health inspections to maintain safe production. <\/p>\n<p>For Pettit, the PRIME Act is interesting, but not a major intervention. It\u2019s not likely to produce serious changes in beef markets or prices. Instead, it promises to open market access to smaller producers, but it won\u2019t be a gamechanger for bigger operations that need a large weekly slaughter to regularly supply restaurant and grocery chains. He compares it to another, older shift in a consumer market: \u201cYou\u2019re letting craft beer into the beer market.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>In a famous test, a journalist delivering fast food hamburger patties to a lab for DNA testing found that a single burger could have meat mixed from a hundred or more different cows. Those cows can come from different herds, different sources, even different states and countries, all tossed into the same grinder. Innovators like Justin Pettit propose to grow the market for single-source meat. But we don\u2019t have markets or a regulatory environment that make any of that easy to do. <\/p>\n<p>The current interaction of the market and the regulatory state pushes meat toward bigness, consolidation, and the absence of local control. Big government, big industry. Sample news headline: \u201cHow four big companies control the U.S. beef industry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Struggling with costly and drawn-out litigation, Santa Carota Ranch is trapped in a moment of decline. They aren\u2019t ordering many carrots, because they aren\u2019t feeding many cattle. Pettit sold his house so he could live on the money while his business is stuck in a holding pattern, and he sold 10,000 acres of land to fund the litigation. His wife and children are in Texas, for now, and he travels back and forth between his family and his ranch. Driving around that ranch this week, through a burn scar from a recent brush fire that brackets his barn, he sighed heavily. \u201cI just wanna go back to feeding cows,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>If he doesn\u2019t get the chance to do that, something in the country is broken.<\/p>\n<p>Justin Pettit recently sat down for a long discussion with the independent journalist Keely Covello, who covers agriculture and water in the American West. You can watch that whole discussion here:<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re interested in the meat on your family\u2019s plates, it\u2019s well worth the time.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/propertytransitionmedia.com\/?p=88\">The Left\u2019s Assassination Cult Welcomes The Fangirls Of Accused Killer Luigi Mangione<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Santa Carota Ranch finishes cattle on carrots for a sweet and nutrient-dense beef.
