    Yeah. I was confused. Here in Europe, we have absolutely huge subsidies. Where I live, beef is still significantly more expensive than chicken. Mindblowing that it’s often the cheapest meat in (I assume) the US. I assume also due to even worse conditions.

        Worse conditions AND more subsidies most likely.

        Although that seems absurd, given how large EU agricultural subsidies are.

      Beef is absolutely more expensive than chicken and pork in the states. By a wide margin. Not sure if OP misspoke or meant cheapest option to raise not purchase or what, but beef is not the cheap option in stores.
