Most if not all your spent milk cows are ground into burger. McDonalds, Costco and any of the burger that is frozen in those plastic bags is from who knows what cow.
As for feedlots out west they are fed pelleted feed and hay usually alfalfa chopped or grass/alfalfa mix.
They are on open range until about 800 pounds and then they go to the feed lots. The old range cows are sold when they go barren for 2 years in a row usually.
