Fast-food chain Steak ‘n Shake is enhancing the taste of their hamburgers.

They announced that, starting in June, they will switch its beef source to pasture-raised cattle. It is their latest effort to align with the “Make America Healthy Again” initiative.

Michael Boes, a past senior adviser within the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Health, will hold the position of “Chief MAHA Officer.” Owner of Steak ‘n Shake Biglari Holdings tells USA Today, “good-tasting food should also be good for you.”
