I grilled a steak from Bi-Lo last night that cost me $2.94 and though it was pretty good. I also had about 6 beers so maybe that played a role.
I guess my point is, you aren't dealing with a refined palate.

Mrs. jbvarnad's reaction to the store and its ambience.
The meat is OK there. It smells like meat when you walk in, which puts some people off.

chicken. No pork.
Seafood is OK.
Hence, a trip to a butcher store is not something she will likely want to do - esp one that looks a little unsavory on the outside.
Unless she's drunk, then all bet's are off and it may be Baconator time.
Just like me, her morals may sway depending on alcohol consumption.

However, there's nothing like paying $53 for a 4 pound rib roast from EarthFare for Thanksgiving. Esp when they are on sale for $4-5/pound at Publix.

mine showed her a video of how cows were treated prior to slaughter when we were eating lunch one day at The Bohemian Cafe (awsum food BTW).
That's when the humane thing started.
I will admit, under duress, that the Springer Mtn chicken that she buys does seem to taste better than reg old publix or whatever brand chicken.

Luckily, I married a woman that appreciates the killing of living things in the bloodiest, goriest, most inhumane ways possible. Like a female Quinton Tarantino, if you will.
