You left out this part that came before the but..

Because it seemed like token language, a segue more than an active point. <g>

that the lower fats levels were the point..

It's hard to tell. That fat is "evil" is so much a pillar of nutritional politically correctness that it's hard to tell whether it's the point or just a rote part of the litany.

When you read the propaganda on grass-fed, you get a few sentences about the added nutritional elements. Then the piece lapses into the obligatory litany about animal rights and the environment, which makes it hard to isolate the omega/cla question. Not that I don't care about animal rights and the environment, only that my brain is offended by the failure to differentiate the elements and stay on point.

the amount of beef consumed may really not be worthwhile the added expense and time of grass fed sources..

Indeed. I eat beef almost every day because it's what best satisfies my hunger and scratches my appetite itch, so the question is more critical to me. If I ate beef once or twice a week, I wouldn't bother with grass-fed, at least not for nutritional reasons.
