what is the difference between Beef and Veal?

Answer 1

*************************************************

"Beef" is meat from full-grown cattle about 2 years old. A live steer weighs about 1,000 pounds and yields about 450 pounds of edible meat. There are at least 50 breeds of beef cattle, but fewer than 10 make up most cattle produced. Some major breeds are Angus, Hereford, Charolais, and Brahman.

"Veal" is meat from a calf which weighs about 150 pounds. Those that are mainly milk-fed usually are less than 3 months old. The difference between "veal" and "calf" is based on the color of their meat, which is determined almost entirely by diet. Veal is pale pink and contains more cholesterol than beef.

Hope this helps. Good luck.

Answer 4

Beef is from a cow or bull that has lived its life on a farm enjoying daylight and fresh grass, Veal comes from a calf that has been shut up for the total of its short miserable life in a lightless shed, this keeps the meat very pale. Its cruel. I like to think that my meat has had a happy(ish) life in the open air before being slaughtered. So enjoy your veal........if you can stomach it.

Veal is from baby cows. Mainly male. * Bob Veal, from calves that are slaughtered when only a few days to 150 lbs. (USA only)[1] * Formula-Fed (or "milk-fed") veal, from calves that are raised on a nutritionally complete milk formula supplement. The meat color is ivory or creamy pink, with a firm, fine and velvety appearance. Usually marketed as veal when they reach 18-20 weeks of age (450-500 lbs). [2] * Non-Formula-Fed ("red" or "grain-fed") [3] veal, from calves that are raised on grain, hay or other solid food in addition to milk. The meat is darker in colour, and some additional marbling and fat may be apparent. Usually marketed as calf rather than veal at 5-6 months of age (650-700 lbs). * Rosé Veal UK is veal reared on farms in association with the UK RSPCA's stringent Freedom Foods program. It is called so due to its pink colour, which is a product of its being slaughtered aged around 8 months. [4] I like beef better. Why kill a baby.
