“In October 2012, the ABA Journal reported on the filing of a patent for a ‘Vegas Strip Steak.’ This particular cut of beef was apparently unknown until it was discovered by an Oklahoma State University meat specialist. While technically ‘unknown,’ the case of the Vegas Strip is really a case of something being undervalued. Surely, experienced butchers, without any specialized knowledge contained in the patent, will know where to find this new cut of beef merely by hearing about it. If the patent is granted, however, anyone who wishes to extract the Vegas Strip from a cow carcass will be legally required to obtain a license from the patent holder.”
