is this from grass fed or conventionally raised beef?

I called them and they said it was from grass feed beef. The woman I spoke with said they had not updated their packaging to reflect this as of yet.

You best bet is to check out the Great Lakes websitehttp://greatlakesgelatin.com/consumer/animalWelfare.php

I bought it because a wonderful book I have about digestive health said it was from grass fed animals. However, I checked the container and it does not say this anywhere on the can. It is the only gelatin that our health food store carries, so I assume it is the most natural around. Their website does not say "grass fed" either. Just looked.

Made in USA, no wheat, soy, corn or gluten, ingredients: Beef, Rice Protein, Spices, Salt, Sugar, Garlic Powder, Sodium Nitrite, these are slow roasted, naturally smoked & nice hefty 7" beef sticks, easy to break into smaller pieces

I dont have a firm answer but If it was 100% grass fed, they would make it really clear on the label. Looks like it might be from cows that are pasture fed some few hours a week or something vague. Usually, when a label is vague, there is a reason. If it is USA sourced and grass fed, it would likely say organic. So, there seems to be some reason why its not organic. I would like to know as well.

kerry gold is not 100% grassfed... according to their site they are 90% grass fed...10% grain fed and 3% of their grain is GMO (they think, it could be more)...check the internet...anchor butter is 100% grassfed...they say their cows eat the grass year round...kalona butter from kalona iowa is supposed to be 100% organic and grass fed...plus it's closer to home

No, quality milk protein whey from pastured cows. Nothing else added. One of nature's SUPER foods!

Pasture Fed does not equal Grass Fed. "grass-fed" refers to what an animal eats (grass); "pasture-raised" refers to where it eats (on a pasture). Grass fed can include hay. Pasture raised means they had access to pasture but they ate whatever was given to them.

Since it comes from "pastured" cows it should be there. You might contact the farm and ensure they feed NO grain and the butter used if ONLY from grass fed animals.

Yes it is produced from grass fed cows, it's also undenatured which is the best kind to use. This is a great product.

I doubt it. Usually if something is organic, it is a selling point and they put it on the label. There is nothing on this label but gelatine, and I looked it up. Gelatine need not be organic and come or come from grass-fed cows.

Was that a typo? - "grown beef"? Browned beef should be fine as the holes are no larger than 3/32" and the edges of the holes are very smooth (no edges). I hope that helps.

It does matter if its grass fed or not - if not, then this means most likely the cattle were fed soy and or corn, which in the U.S. is about 90% chance of being genetically modified if not organic. GMO food fed to the cattle means we are getting GMO in our diet. So if this matters to you, I wouldn't go with it.

In my research, this New Zealand brand is as close to full grass fed that I was able to find. Others swear by Kerry Gold, but in my reading, it seems the weather where these cows are raised would be more favorable year round. To my knowledge, nobody is marketing a butter with claims it is 100% grass fed, weather likely being the primary reason why.

Hello, I am sorry I took so long to get back to you! In answer to your question, I was told the gelatin is made from animal derived product. Although it does not come from cattle, Nature Made products come primarily from pork sources. I hope that has been of some help! Linda

I don't know - assume not organic or pastured or they would state it on their packaging. Suggest emailing the company and asking. Good question, I've wondered myself.

According to their website Biltong uses organic grass fed beef. biltongsuperstore.com

I do not know although it doesnt appear to be. I have been buying grass fed butter for a while and the new zealand doesnt taste good and its way to solid, even at room temp. Pure Indian foods Grass fed Ghee is by far one of the best Ive tasted although a bit expensive. Second to that os Ancient Organics grass fed butter which is great although they have doubled their price.
