I am sorry, but did you say that we need more people like Masaky? Do you actually think that keeping those animal indoors 24/7, denying them the freedom to roam in the field, the taste of fresh pastures, the smell of the open air , the sun on their body is good for the animals? Stroking the animals will not compensate for the cruelty, of the lack of freedom, and unnatural diet. I WOULD NOT EAT THAT MEAT IF IT WAS GIVEN TO ME FREE.

Seeing someone who truly loves their work and has absolute respect for the cattle even knowing the end result is amazing.

I live in Kagawa Prefecture and seen the Olive field scene several times, breathtaking as always. Despite living in Oliveland I haven’t tasted the famous Olive Beef because it’s expensive. So far I’ve eaten Olive Hamachi (Yellowfin Tuna) and it is exquisite. Olive Hamachi consumes dried olive leaves before consumption. Kagawa is one of the lesser known prefectures but we have great Udon noodles, lots of Bonsai, of course Olives and world class quality Gloves (which where I am working).

He really love those cows!

Super interesting video. So the 20 cattle shown in the video stay inside their shed and are being fed even during summer? Do they ever free roam, eating uncontrolled pasture? Is there even space for one producer to raise 3000 cattle on an island like that?

If i could start over, I’d move to Japan

Artifical value

The foie gras of beef; I would eat!

I'd like to hear scientists speak to if any chemicals in the olives could possibly make their way into the muscle tissue of cows and actually change the taste of the beef. I feel like it would be digested into material indistingushable from many other types of plain feed.

How many different type of olives 🫒 are there?

The Japanese are hard working, industrious and friendly people.
