Angus is a breed of beef cattle. The flavor comes not from the breed but
from how it is raised. Angus is no more flavorful or unflavorful than
Hereford - or any other breed of beef cattle. It is how they are raised
that makes the flavor.

The term 'Angus' as it is used in advertising is used because it is more
recognizable as a beef cattle breed than other breeds. The meat sold under
that name may or may not be from an actual Angus bred cow/steer.

It's advertising - and the gullibility and lack of knowledge of the average
consumer.

Look for the grade of the cut of meat - choice, prime, etc - to judge the
quality.
