bruce johnson Report post Posted September 11, 2007 Alright, Monkey got us going with the steak-quest. So as to not hijack that thread, I noticed the south end of my north facing Ford tonight. There on the left is Beef, It's What's For Dinner. But, what do these producers do for us? And what should we as leather folk be thinking? Beef, It's What's For Dinner - and each steer consumed is two sides of leather. Got Milk? - and when those cows are done, they yield big spready hides with few brands Eat American Lamb - we could use the woolskins Try Goat (cabrito) - It really is pretty good, and the hide makes a dandy lining. Pork, The Other White Meat - Makes a pretty good leather too. Besides the real white meat is chicken - no flavor and nobody tans chicken hides except on the grill. Ostrich, The Low Cholesterol Alternative - Ok, this meat is not very good, but the hides are really cool. The Cordovan people have fallen behind. I haven't seen any ad campaign to eat more horse butts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CitizenKate Report post Posted September 14, 2007 I was thinking something similar... whenever I see a field of cattle, I actually see racks of tanned leather. Ha! But meat is also an addiction of mine. Kate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
