Description

Filet mignon is a small cut of beef, taken from the smaller end of the tenderloin.

In the 1920s, scientists discovered the reason filet mignon is so tender due to the fact the tenderloin is not a weight-bearing muscle, noting that both physical and emotional stress often results in tougher meat. This news caused farmers to try to make their cattle as relaxed as possible, and in the years that followed, it wasn't uncommon for farmers to sing their cows to sleep. As farmers competed to make their cattle creatures of comfort, some attempted the opposite, and would break into competing farms at night to push over sleeping cows. This resulted in many cows developing anxiety disorders, causing their meat to become tougher.

Today, filet mignon is enjoyed on Valentine's Day as a way of celebrating the love many farmers have for their cows.
