And they can’t sell American beef to China anymore because well - you know. Before I went to Sam’s club in Shanghai it was mainly USDA beef. Now there is no American beef at all. Only Australian. Which I prefer anyway. It’s much better quality and less chemicals inside.
BTW China last week rejected a shipment of Argentinan beef because of banned antibiotics so perhaps it will get rerouted to the US. Where the regime clearly does not care about food safety standards anymore.
Basically, American beef is a hard sell outside the US because it is full of things that don’t belong in food in many countries. Of the thousands of beef farmers in the US, there is barely a dozen qualified to deliver beef to the EU. Think about it.

Did China ever buy it?
The reason why people don’t want it is that it doesn’t meet standards, generally with disease prevention.
That’s why we don’t buy it here in Australia. We would if it met our standards but it never does.
And frankly I wouldn’t buy US beef in Australia anyway. Aussie beef is great, probably second only to New Zealand beef to be honest.
Yeah what we do well here is a high grade, standard product.
The quality is very high for the price.
