Ep 246 | Your burger might contain meat from hundreds of cows, the beef tallow industry is corrupt (allegedly), and Garmin just dropped a new wearable tracker… for your horse.

This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara explore what's really going on with blended ground beef and if it's the food safety crisis the internet wants it to be. They also celebrate an Olympic win for the Painterland Sisters and a denim brand founded by a 9-year-old cowgirl and her dad.
