    And that's why I spend the couple of extra dollars to buy grass feed beef and buffalo, and pork and chickens from local family farms that I know. Or shoot and butcher my own venison.

    You have to look at it from both sides.
    Skittles are awesome and safe for human consumption right?
    How would it affect cows?

    Although "grass fed" could be many things... "grass finished" is probably what you should be looking for. Usually, people do not like the grass finished beef though, "tastes too wild". "Grass fed" beef can still be finished off and fattened up in the feed yard like all the others...but usually tastes better... Just some info from someone with some cattle industry knowledge...
