Color and texture of lean are usually determined by examining the cross section of the loin muscle after a carcass has been "ribbed down", but some indications may be found in other parts of the carcass. While "dark-cutting beef" has the same eating qualities as that of bright color, it is not so attractive to the consumer and is discounted in the trade. Accordingly, it is not accepted for Grade A when the condition is apparent. 3, record 2, English, - dark%2Dcutting%20beef

Hay dos tipos de queso Gloucester: simple […] y doble […] el Gloucester simple se hace con leche desnatada combinada con una pequeña cantidad de leche entera, mientras que el Gloucester doble se hace sólo con leche entera. Ambos tipos de queso tienen una corteza natural y textura dura, pero el Gloucester simple tiene una textura que se desmigaja con facilidad, más ligera y menos graso. Al Gloucester doble se le deja envejecer durante más tiempo que al simple, y tiene un sabor más fuerte. También es algo más firme.
