The Take
Steak earns a Slop Score of 6 because it is literally one ingredient: cow. No factory sludge, no seed oils, just meat that great-grandma would recognize.
Everything else added in restaurants is the risk. The core product stays based.
The Verdict
Buy actual steak. Salt it. Cook it over fire. Pair with raw milk or bone broth for the ultimate based stack.
Slop Score: 6. The closer it stays to cow plus salt plus fire, the higher it climbs.
Common Questions
Does Steak have seed oils?
No. Plain steak contains zero seed oils. The warning only applies if a restaurant drenches it in industrial marinade.
Is Steak ultra-processed?
No. Real steak is whole-muscle meat with nothing added. Ultra-processed versions only exist when factories get involved.
Does marinated steak still count?
Only if the marinade is simple. Most restaurant versions inject seed oils and sugar that tank the score.
