Management should seriously consider hiring a better translator at this mexican Fiesta Inn hotel:

FYI: the correct translation should read: "meat in its juice"

If I paid for it, it is in my juice. I don't see the issue. :D

I am more concerned with the generic "meat". Not Beef, Pork, Lamb, Chicken, Duck, Goose, Goat, ...? What is left? Rat, dog, cat, ...?

Nah... Mexico is not China... when you say "meat" (carne) down here it usually means beef.

Keep your juices to yourself, btw :p:D

When I holidayed in Spain many moons ago I noticed the Carne tasted a little different than I was used to, then I noticed they grass fed the cattle instead of grain, the beef was very lean (minimum fat).
I saw the way they would tether the steer to a spike in the ground with so much rope and move it each day in order to allow the the animal's to feed in a certain radius only.
IOW a grass ration!o_O
Not sure if they practice that in Mexico.
Max.

In my province, Córdoba, they used an electric fence to limit the area where the cattle could move. It was oriented to ensure an even consumption of the grass. Never heard of cattle tied to anything, just those fences.

Not sure if in use nowadays.

The last time I was in Kentucky, there was a bull nearby. He bellowed all day long!!!
I wondered if his throat would be hurt by that.
I think trying to tether him would be impossible.:D
My wife says I snore like that. My throat is sometimes a little scratchy in the morning.
