Neither the statement nor the reason is correct.The grade of "select" is a good selection because it contains fewer kilocalories as a result of less fat and marbling.Although fat content of meats also depends on the type of cut,leaner cuts such as flank steak,sirloin,or tenderloin are good selections.Also recommended is marinating leaner cuts of meat in flavored vinegars and fruit juices.Lemon juice is particular effective at tenderizing meat.
