    I agree that's fantastic, but where do you buy your meat dude? I'm finding it more and more difficult to get good quality aged meat. So far the aged rump at Woolies is better than the rest (but so much more expensive).
    My ignore list: growing too fast to keep updating.

    Woolies is quality. Problem with many butchers is that some of their cuts are plain horrible.

    Quality employment.

    In the old days the butcher (single owner type) would take on a single appy and teach him all the tricks of the trade, and the bloke wouldn't get anywhere near the cutting board unless the boss was happy with his skill. But it's considered unskilled labour, so any Tom or his dog can apply - and anybody gets pushed into the butchery - the small butchers need to take people who will accept low paychecks or they can't compete with the big players (Shoprite et al) who don't give a crap either way.

    That's my theory anyways.

    Woolies has never skipped on quality though ... but yes, the prices are frightening.

    One's probably just a Woolies Food while the other does the usual combo of clothes + everything.
