It's at Sendik's. Starting this month, Balistreri-owned-and-operated Sendik's Food Markets offer a new health-conscious option in its meat departments.

Sendik's has partnered with Tallgrass Beef Company to sell grass fed and finished beef that is free of synthetic hormones, sub-therapeutic antibiotics, animal byproducts and grain. This serves as an alternative to the traditional corn-fed beef.

Tallgrass Beef Company was founded by veteran Chicago journalist Bill Kurtis to produce grass beef that is free from chemicals produced in a sustainable and humane manner.

Kurtis will be in Milwaukee visiting several Sendik's Market locations on April 24 and 26 where he'll talk to customers and offer samples.

Schedule:

April 24
Elm Grove: 13425 W. Watertown Plank Rd., 10-11:30 a.m.
Germantown: NW112 W15800 Mequon Rd., 12:30-2 p.m.

April 26
Greenfield: 7901 W. Layton Ave., 10-11:30 a.m.
Franklin: 5200 W. Rawson Ave., 12:30-2 p.m.

Wow, can't we all just get along? Remember, being "green" is about doing things that make you feel like you're doing something, not actually doing anything. And if you dont' like my comment, my therapist told me to say it.

Normally, I can't stand to even read Funky Brewster's comments, but in this case, a very good and valid point has been made. I'm all for living a "greener" lifestyle, but where do you draw the line? Seriously, eco-friendly beef. That's like healthy cigarettes, or fat-free lard. If there are people (sheeple) stupid enough to make a conscious effort to purchase eco-friendly meat, then they deserver what they get - $20 a lb beef that tastes exactly like $1.00 a lb beef. Save your money and take up a neat hobby like Heroin.
