Roe is probably one of my favorite restaurants in London right now. And its chefs are doing some amazing educative videos as well.
This one was about different breeds of meat cows:
The Wagyu beef that is sold in the UK is Hereford’s impregnated with embryos from Japan. Each embryo costs 3K GBP and has 33% success rate.
Belgian Blue cow has a genetic mutation that means they continue to develop muscles. The calf is so big they can’t pass through the birth canal, and thus expensive to grow.
Limousine is very economical, in terms of how fast it grows. It’s not that tasty.
