At the dept of the recession, high-end steak houses were really hurting, and the market got flooded with Prime. You take the good with the bad I guess. Glad to see the economy is improving even if it hikes beef prices. On another note, I read recently in the news that Walmart was to begin selling Choice in their meat departments. Volume like that can affect whole markets, raising the cost of Choice. I tend to stay with Angus (which declines USDA grading) and is always between Choice and Prime if it WERE to be graded.
I much preferred that TASTE of Restaurant Depot Angus over Costco Prime, even though the marbling was not there.
