ABOUT THE ECONOMICS OF EVERYDAY THINGS:
Zachary Crockett uncovers the hidden side of the things that surround us. Who decides what snacks are in your office’s vending machine? How much is a 100-year-old elm tree on a suburban block worth - and to whom? And what makes Girl Scout Cookies a billion-dollar business?

I listen to you guys on amazon music while driving, great show! Your ending, from 18:00 on, is just fantastic. Hats off to Katy and her dad, mad respect.
I went to college for Foodservice Management and went on a field trip to a slaughter house. We got to see everything. The thing that affected me the most was how they removed the hide from the carcass. After the head is removed, metal cuffs clamp around the cows legs and it is hoisted into the air. Another machine hooks into the pelt and it is peeled off the body in one big piece. I remember it laying in the floor like a rumpled fur coat. It was really something.
A great sequel to Meat and You: Partners in Freedom by Troy McClure
I wish they would have spoke about the "Tomahawk". Taking a Rib eye ,and raising the cost as well as adding additional bone at said cost?? Genius.. Consumers aren't very smart
Some people just like to spend money.
They do say the bone helps with cooking, getting a slightly higher temperature, so there is some function there.
San Rafael is in central California. You have to be north of Reding to be in Northern California. Look up the proposed State of Jefferson
Standard usage of "Northern California" doesn't agree with you
@@7walkingman people from the Bay Area are wrong. The Bay Area people have been persecuting Northern California for over a century. That is why the State of Jefferson was proposed. My cousin moved to Mt. Shasta to live a better life. His widow loves the area. I do also, but I don't like snow
NON OF THIS MAKES ECONOMIC SENSE TO ME!!!... AND I HAVE BEEN IN THE INDUSTRY FOR OVER 25 YEARS. I WANT TO SEE A BLIND TEST BY A CONSUMER, OF GRADES...WOW!!!
Please un cap your confusion and ignorant comments, your embarrassing your kids.....again
