Why do we have to pronounce it Ko-bee? Why can't we pronounce it Kobe..  Like globe and robe for example. That's how I'm gonna pronounce it from now on because that's the Queen's English.

Because it isn't an English word?

AMERICAN-STYLE WAGYU BURGERS

Wagyu, the Japanese breed of animal made famous as Kobe Beef, has been successfully raised here in the US for some time. These animals are grain fed a full year and produce an incredible amount of marble, which leads to its exceptionally rich flavor.  Give us a little lead time and we will make it in almost any size burger or slider you prefer.

It's wangus bro.

Kobe is served in thin slices off the bone because the fat coats your tongue.

No one ever puts it in a burger.

Waaaay too faty.

Only 8 resturaunts in the US are licensed to sell wagyu beef, and NONE IS SOLD OUTSIDE OF THEM.

Now from what I learned from our sysco salesman it contains 10% kobe which isn't 100% but its still good enough

There is another Alexander's Steakhouse in Pasadena.  The price for the Wagyu steak (if it really was) was astronomical but it could have all been an elaborate lie.... I didn't order to find out.

That list is incomplete or out of date. We serve wagyu and kobe at my work, most of it is not from Japan which is typically what you see in these instances. But we also sell a limited amount of the real deal. Only a handful of places have the authentic stuff and it will always have the prefecture of origin listed, among other things. I regularly clean the butcher shop on Sundays with the sous chefs and the non-Japanese stuff is kept out with all the other meats while the real deal Kobe is locked up in a special cooler. Your list seems to come from an artcile published about 4 years ago. Availability has increased since then, albeit in small amounts. 

Here's a more recent list specifically for my area, which includes my work:
