So what's with the Prime? My sons went to Costco last week and got some
beautiful USDA Prime steaks for US$8.99 a pound. My oldest son
theorized that the restaurants just aren't selling as much as they
usually do, so it's going to retail. Our local Costco very seldom has
Prime, but my son said they had tons, in several cuts. They also had
USDA Choice, but it wasn't that much cheaper.
