A whole swath of Americans eat a pound in a sitting. 6oz is a standard portion, but most people ignore that. Most restaurants have 8oz as the smallest steak. Hell, I was just at a place with a 40 fucking ounce ribeye in the menu. Plus the fuck tons of ground beef a lot of people eat, especially in casserole situations
Seriously, this. I get stink eye because I portion no more than 4oz of beef per serving per person.
I would love to have options for ground beef with 50% or more replaced by mushrooms. I’ve had burgers made like this and they were better than a fully beef version. Make this widely available, and cheaper than 100% beef, and I could see that accepted faster than the highly processed non meat options like impossible or beyond brands.
That sounds super tasty. I like the non meat stuff occasionally, but yeah they are highly processed. Plus we recently discovered that they tend to trigger my partner’s IBS.
The greenwashing is literally brazen.
Also, who is eating 60lbs of beef a year? More than a pound a week?
