Meat Town

There’s an article in the Business section of the paper today about how so many Bakersfield residents make steak a regular part of their diet. The local Tahoe Joe’s “is the highest grossing of the nine” in California. The article concludes that the reason for all this red meat consumption can be traced back to our roots, saying “many residents trace their lines back to hearty newcomers from Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas.”

Now I know what to order when I go out to dinner tonight. Yee haw!
