We need to look at the meat being sold in America and consider what it's indicative of: horrific health in the animals we are consuming.
I love wagyu beef just as much as anyone else. But the infiltration of fat into muscle is not normal. It's a sign of degeneration and disease.

But it's not just the muscle marbling that concerns me. It's the cysts, tumors and visible diseased meat being sold and eaten across America. Up until a few months ago, never in my life had a seen a tumor leaking green puss in a piece of ribeye sold at the grocery store. But over the last year, this has been posted hundreds of times across dozens of subreddits.
What the hell is happening to our meat?
Steatosis: The Truth About Marbled Meat
Fat infiltration into muscle is a sign of muscle cell death. What we are witnessing on a large scale in these cows is actually muscular dystrophy—progressive muscle wasting, followed by fat replacement. Wagyu may be delicious, but consider what you're really consuming.
It's called steatosis and it occurs in unhealthy cows with muscle degeneration – energy loss.


Muscle is living, energy-producing tissue, responsible for movement and metabolic function. Fat, while useful as a fuel storage and acid buffer, does not contain energy—it serves as a storage medium, not an active power source. When we prize excessive marbling, we are, in effect, valuing the degeneration of muscle tissue over its vitality.
If you're wondering what could possibly be the cause, don't look at the 37 vaccines we give all produce and meat cattle by adulthood. Definitely don't look into factory farming conditions.
The problem is this muscle disease/decay isn't just showing up in cows. And it's not just showing up as dystrophy.
Steatosis Doesn't Just Occur in Cows

I asked ChatGPT what was wrong with this chicken:
"Based on the image, the chicken carcass appears to have yellowish, firm deposits of fat, particularly around the sternum and breast tissue. This is highly suggestive of a condition known as Chicken Fatty Liver Hemorrhagic Syndrome (FLHS) or Steatosis, which occurs due to excessive fat deposition in tissues."





















Stringy chicken is also a sign of muscle degeneration
