R-CALF gets COOL disappointment, travels to Midwest

I think it speaks volumes about priorities (and political donations) when politicians fight COOL requirements. I want my customers to know the farm (mine) their meat is coming from, and I want them to be comfortable with how that farm is run and how the animals are raised - all COOL asks is that they be able to identify which country the animal was from! A tiny step in reconnecting consumers with their food supply.

R-CALF USA expressed disappointment after learning California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoed country-of-origin legislation earlier this week.
