Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Omaha Steaks.

I live with in 50 miles of them and won't touch them.......by BIL raises great beef so I don't have to eat that overrated stuff.

Why do you care what market segment OS is targeting in their marketing campaign?

That is funny. Must be my stroke, but I read it as Obama steaks!

That happens quite frequently .

I visited Chernobyl in 1992 as part of a radiation safety delegation. I know all about "hot stuff". I've got some "Psycho Soy Hot Sauce" here made by the Purple Pepper Hot Sauce Co. that will knock your socks off! Of course, it isn't going to help improve the flavor of chitty steak.

I had one of those meandering frozen steak pickups try and hit me up here just last summer.

I know!


I only use La Choy.

You're just trolling me now.

Hahaha!

This is very true.

Never had anything from Omaha Steaks, but have never heard anyone say that they liked them, so that's good enough for me. As for Dale's seasoning, we use it, and I haven't croaked yet.

Has nothing to do with the market they're targeting.

I was on a pipeline job back in 2005 in Omaha. I decided one evening to go out and eat a steak. I saw a steak house with a sign that featured "Omaha Steaks." I had remembered hearing ads about the famous steaks so I decided to stop in. I ordered their largest ribeye, medium rare, with baked potato, salad and bread. When the waitress brought it out it looked appetizing, just like in the TV commercials. I cut into the steak and visually ascertained it was cooked to my satisfaction. I took the first bite, and the taste was so disgusting, I spit it out on my plate, and did not touch the rest of the steak. I was hungry so I ate the potato, salad and bread. The waitress came by and noticed I had eaten everything but the steak, She asked if I wanted to take it home with me. I told her it was not her fault, and I was going to pay my check in full, but that the steak was the most foul piece of meat I had ever tried to eat. So my first experience with "Omaha Steaks" is my lasting impression.

I had to google miscegenation.

I don't think it'll kill you, but it's so easy to do so much better.

If you want to be fair about it, and say that people of all races and sexual orientations should be treated equally, okay, but go about it the right way. Blacks compromise about 13% of the population, then have them in 13% of the commercials and ads, not 77%. Same way with Whites, Hispanics, Asians, and Native Americans. I do not know what percentage of the population claim to be queers or trannies, but it should also apply to them........if 2% claim to be a queer, then show them in 2% of the commercials, not the current 25% or whatever it is.

Now, let's also go another step further, and straighten out the movie and TV industry that shows an out of proportion rate of Blacks being smarter than Whites, and more Whites involved in criminal activities than Blacks or Hispanics. Let's do that on the percentage rate of Blacks committing a crime, as compared to Whites.

After all, fair is fair.

But that doesn't promote their agenda.

If not the target audience of homosexuals isn't the issue, what is the issue?

The point of selling is to move product at as close to full retail price as is possible. Anyone who can legally buy the product and can pay the price is a good customer regardless of race, gender, nationality, or sexual orientation.

When you guys watch those commercials do you have a powerful urge to go take a black dude out to dinner?

Agreed, but fair should be fair. Isn't that what we're told? After all, there is a fairness doctrine.

No, but it conditions children to think it's OK.
