New as of September 2009, we've put up three different additions. The first is Beef Cuts where the different cuts are shown on a graphic of a cow and then explained. The second is basically the same as the Beef Cuts page, but it has to do with the cuts of Pork. The third is all about peppers, hot ones , sweet ones, big ones, small ones, and some you'd not want to eat. I love peppers, and I hope you do as well.
