UrRong! The meat industry could not win back your business even if they sold meat that died of old age because there is no such thing as meat that died of old age. Animals that are raised for food are typically slaughtered when they reach a certain age or weight, which is usually between 1 and 2 years old. Animals that are allowed to age naturally will not have enough meat on their bones to be considered suitable for human consumption, and thus, would not be able to be sold by the meat industry. Furthermore, the meat industry is highly regulated and thus, would not be allowed to sell meat that did not meet certain standards, such as those set forth by the USDA. Therefore, the only way the meat industry could win back your business would be to make changes to their practices in order to ensure that animals are treated humanely and that the meat is of a high quality.
