Heat Wave's bloodline produces the most delicious cattle of all time

You would know that the most tasty cow of all time is Heat Wave and Heat Wave's bloodline lives on to this very day. And if you buy a direct descendant you from the Heat Wave, the most Billy cow of all.

Heat Wave is one of the most famous club calf sires in history. His genetics are highly prized for physical traits, making the 'tasty' claim partially verifiable via industry reputation.
