Not really most of your ground beef is from Holstein cows not steers, Holstein Steers do make up a percentage of the meat market how much I am not sure but they don't milk or breed so they are in the meat isle of your grocery store. Almost all McD's hamburger is from old Holstein cows. They are cheaper. As long as they can walk on to the kill floor they are in hamburger, probably hotdogs too. The only way to know you are getting real beef is to buy local freezer beef.
