Maybe, but without proper and thorough labeling, you still don't know where your meat comes from. You don't know if it has been injected with growth hormones (and if so, which ones, and how much). You don't know what that meat was fed. You don't know what antibiotics it was given (and which ones and how much).
Sounds silly, but that's the case across the board. Almost none of our foods are labeled to let us know if genetically modified ingredients are present for example. Now it turns out that much of the food at Whole Foods are now genetically modified too!
If you think that everything is safe to eat, cool. But on the other hand if you want to avoid some things, and you want to know specifically what you are eating, good luck with that!
