Lunch at Sale clarify the meaning of the terms: carcass, side, quarter, wholesale cut, primal cut, and subprimal cut. The terms are currently used in the stan dards but are not defined. When beef is federally graded, two grade marks are applied - one for quality (Prime, Choice, Good, etc.) and one for yield (Yield Grade No. 1, No. 2, etc.). ''H Grading rules prohibit removing either one of these grade marks from a federally graded carcass, side, or quarter. Both marks may be removed, but not just one. However, when federally graded beef is marketed as retail cuts, subprimal cuts, or wholesale cuts substantially trimmed of external fat, the yield grade mark may be removed and the beef may be of ficially identified for its quality grade only. The proposed definitions are: Carcass - the two sides of the same slaughtered animal with or without the kidneys and after removal of the other viscera and the hide, head, feet, and tail.
