My dad wouldn't even recognize the farm today if he was still alive.

It's changed that much.

I mean, when he retired and when my brother and I went back to the family farm, he could ride around every day and tell us what was wrong with everything and then be happy and go home.

But you could tell he was thrilled to have us there.

And we immediately did the makeover to his farm.

And he's like up in arms, you know, what are y'all doing?

You're ruining that field.

I don't think it should be done that way.

And we just kept going.

And then that fall, he said, that's prettiest rice I've ever seen.

So he just, he didn't understand that sometimes you have to, you know,

It's going to look uglier before it looks better.

This is the first time a meatball has ever been cooked with beef cells.
