One Reason To Stop Buying Your Meat At The Supermarket
MIAMI, FL - JULY 08: Meat is displayed in a case at a grocery store July 8, 2014 in Miami, Florida. According to reports, food prices have risen significantly, with ground beef rising 10.4 percent, pork 12.7 percent and oranges 17 percent from a year ago this May. U.S. Department of Agriculture predicted that food prices would rise and overall 2.5 to 3.5 percent this year, compared to 1.4 percent last year.
A butcher has revealed why people might want to stop buying their ground beef from grocery stores.
Some stores are getting their meat from large distributors where one pound of ground beef can have meat from up to 1,000 animals.
Places that do this make it impossible to trace the meat back to its source. This means that foodborne illness outbreaks can’t be contained.
