Are you ready to try Wagyu beef? This luxurious beef comes from a Japanese line of cattle that’s prized for being extraordinarily flavorful, tender, and juicy. It’s got beautiful fat marbling throughout the meat, and an exquisite mouth feel. Best of all, the fat that makes Wagyu so special is healthy fat. It’s 50 percent higher in monounsaturated than regular beef, with three times more Omega-3 polyunsaturates. Wagyu beef used to be strictly limited to Japan, but now we’re lucky enough to have access to American Wagyu, descended from Japanese champions but living here in our own United States.
