beef, a choice variety of meat rarely found outside of Japan.
The companys nine metro locations will begin carrying the traditionally
Japanese style beef on December 17. Anticipating great fanfare, the grocer is
currently taking reservations for the meat, and spending about $30,000 to
$40,000 on a print and radio ad campaign.

three grades higher than the companys current top beef. It has a very, very
rich buttery flavor. Its all 100 percent prime.
