Beef cows are accumulators. And their feed often contains plastics.

Just thought it was interesting considering they are 'grass-fed'. Is that just a lie? Or maybe it's something else, like if they're drinking water from plastic containers that sit in the sun all day

Even here in Switzerland grass fed means that like 70% of the year they eat grass from their fields, conserved in large plastic "rolls"
