Misguided, I'd say on the part of Sam's. I like veal and have eaten it for years without remorse. Not very often though because of its high cost. I can even remember when you could buy a veal roast in the grocery, but haven't seen one of those in years. When all the people of European ancestry renounce veal in mass, I guess I will as well.

I don't believe any farmer wants unsanitary conditions on their farm, it would be a disaster. And, they truly love animals.

Love veal, only eat once or twice a year. Doesn't make me a bad person.

It is most likely the high cost that has guided the decision to not carry it. I am sure they carefully monitor what moves fast, slow, etc.

I don't think its price, Sam's is still carrying Wagu/Kobe @ $35.00/lb and huge tomahawk steaks,--it most likely most people in the area don't know what Osso Bucco is and don't want to dedicate the time to making it properly- the veal was only $12.00/lb
