Scorecard — Bench 1.0
7.8 [AGENT] agent-researched; turns green with user + third-party verification (rules)
| TASTE | 8.6 | Range tops out at A5 Kuroge BMS 10-12; American/Australian wagyu BMS-scored; Angus house line 'Choice-Plus equivalent' with ample marbling and 21-day wet age; distinct grass-fed terroir option. | |
| HEALTHY | 7.8 | No-antibiotics/no-added-hormones on all beef lines (affidavit-backed, self-claimed), a 100% grass-fed grass-finished option, full traceability claims, Certified Humane grass-fed line; no organic cert or USDA process verification. | |
| COST | 6.2 | Cheapest ribeye $33.33/lb (grass-fed 4-pack) sits mid-band vs the $25-45 D2C norm with strong transparency, but flagship Angus runs $50-52/lb (above band) and wagyu/A5 $137-210/lb; subscriptions cut 10% + free shipping. | |
| HAPPY | 7.8 | Grass-fed line Certified Humane, corroborated in HFAC directory via supplier Greenham; all lines claim pasture raising and low-stress handling; but domestic Angus/wagyu welfare is self-attested affidavits, no GAP/AWA on those lines. | |
| TEXTURE | 8.3 | Angus wet-aged 21+ days for tenderness; wagyu/A5 lines deliver silky, densely marbled texture (BMS 10-12 top line); grass-fed line leaner. All ship frozen, which slightly trims the ceiling. |
