A Facebook item popped up this morning from Lidgates,, “ London’s premier butcher”
Waygu steak, £60+ for a sirloin, £50+ for a smaller fillet.

Have you/ Would you ever pay so much for meat?
I thought it was for a pack, no, a single steak.

Absolutely not - I've just done my week's shopping for little more than that.

I love an aged rib eye steak but for some reason Waygu puts me off. No idea why. 🤷‍♀️
So, no.

No not that amount I will buy a ribeye occasionally but only if its on offer.

I know Wagyu is expensive but that is ridiculous!

I eat very little red meat so I can’t remember the last time I had a steak.
Wouldn’t say no if someone else was paying though. 🤣

I noticed aged sirloin in M & S last weekend was £17 for one steak. I bought two aged ribeye ones from my local butcher for £30 so £15 each and probably that’s the most I would pay. Never had waygu don’t really fancy it.
