Wagyu (和牛 ,wagyū?) refers to several breeds of cattle genetically predisposed to intense marbling and to producing a high percentage of oleaginous unsaturated fat. The meat from wagyu cattle is known worldwide for its marbling characteristics, increased eating quality through a naturally enhanced flavor, tenderness and juiciness, and thus a high market value. Several areas in Japan are famous for the quality of their Wagyu cattle, and ship beef bearing their areas' names. Some examples are Kobe, Mishima and Ohmi beef.

The wagyu cattle's genetic predisposition yields a beef that contains a higher percentage of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids[1] than typical beef. The increased marbling also improves the ratio of monounsaturated fats to saturated fats.


That's all I know about it - straight from Wiki !

Apparently Bush ordered his from Australia some time after 2005, while Obama's was US grown. But Obama is the devil incarnate for eating Wagyu steak, while Bush gets a pass from the right-wing.

He was almost certainly eating above the grade of the average American. I imagine hungry dust-farmers scrabbling for scraps and suffering from malnutrition would consider his three squares to be a sumptuous feast, well beyond their means.

2006 was when home foreclosures started to take off and many banks failed. 2007 was the first multi-billion dollar AIG bailout. 2008 - well, we all know about 2008.

No USers except the top 5% were doing very well either then or now.

What were many USers eating during those years ? Not Wagyu steak - then or now. They were eating about what they are eating now, on the average.
