Sprouts has the Wednesday deals!

What fat % do u buy for your ground beef?

73% meat, 27% fat.

I did the calculations a while back - depending on the price differential between 73/27 and 80/20, you may actually be getting a better deal (meat only) on the 73/27 even if you THROW AWAY all the fat on the 73/27.

Of course, you're not going to throw it all away, so in all likelihood, 73/27 is the best deal. It's certainly the tastiest, once you're fat adapted.

80/20 is the lowest I’ve seen!!

Hmm, interesting, here you get the higher fat percentage meat easily. However, only at the "lower end" grocery stores. The ones that are a little bit higher on the socio-economic scale, with lots of organic, gourmet foods, won't have that type of ground beef.

I guess the wealthier people are more bought in to the idea that animal fat is bad?

What's Sprouts like? We may be getting one in our town.

I just checked out the Sprouts weekly ad from a nearby city, and it's had ZERO animal products, except for some (regular, sugary) yogurt.

Has great meat. Bison. Kangaroo. Wild boar. Just no discounts on meat I guess
