Which way is good to define font-family?

I'm working on project where I have to define font-family for the whole project and then I got a question in my mind that Which way is good to define font-family in my stylesheet?

Like this

*{
  font-family: sans-serif,Verdana, "Trebuchet MS";
}

or

Like this

body{
      font-family: sans-serif,Verdana, "Trebuchet MS";
    }

body is better.

I would actually use:

html{
      font-family: sans-serif, Verdana, "Trebuchet MS";
    }

Whether you use html or body, it does not really matter, but I have seen html more often

The universal selector (*) is extremely slow. It would be like finding every possible type of html tag and giving each of those the rule seperately
