Cultural Cow Mappings

Food has been the base of survival since ancient times. However cultural definition of food is different all over the world. Cows are a good example. It seems different cultures all have their own view upon a same type of species.

The cows’ meat division knows a lot of difference between cultures. Where as in India cows are holy creatures, the division of western and Asian cuts seems to give a different view upon parts of meat in general. Perhaps even some insight into the cultures’ related food types and food culture?

What for western countries contains the best pieces of meat, the back end of the cow is non kosher food for Jews and perhaps non Halal for Muslims. Now there is a nice opportunity to connect cultures through cows, west to east, front for back.
