A cattle farm in Springfield, Vermont, recently became the first U.S. shipper of Certified Wagyu Beef.
The cattle are pasture-raised, grass-fed and grain-finished, and are also 100% Fullblood Authentic Wagyu Beef, according to Meatingplace. Vermont Wagyu plans to introduce the Certified Authentic Wagyu label on its products, yet still reminding consumers that their products will remain 100% Fullblood Wagyu.
Vermont Wagyu stated that the products with the new label are rated above the second category of Prime.
