Texas Slim: Saving The American Rancher - The Looming Crisis In The Beef Industry (PART 1) | MMP #289
Download MP3In this eye-opening episode, we sit down with Texas Slim, a passionate advocate for the American rancher, to discuss the dire state of the beef industry. Texas Slim has dedicated his life to exposing the deception within the beef industry. Growing up in the heart of Texas cattle country, Texas Slim witnessed firsthand the devastating changes that have occurred over the past 50 years. Through his work with the Beef Initiative, Texas Slim has become a voice for the American rancher, tirelessly advocating for a return to sustainable, community-driven food systems. His passion for building relationships between consumers and ranchers is evident in his motto, "Meet your rancher, shake their hand."
Texas Slim reveals the startling truth about how just four multinational corporations control the majority of the cattle industry, leading to a consolidation that is pushing small, independent ranchers out of business. He shares his personal journey of discovering the correlation between our broken food systems, declining health, and the commoditization of our currency.
