There is a huge variation in choice grade meat. Some shops pay good attention and tend to select the upper end. Bigger buyers like SandS don't seem to care as much and the quality is all over the place. I actually like good aged choice over some prime. You can get it at whole foods. Real prime isn't easy to find any more outside of a good steakhouse.

Don't try to eat a lot of red meat anymore, but if I do it's as good as I can find. If you're going to ingest that much saturated fat it might as well be good
