I'd think that's a great deal, some regular beef is that much

Going there after work to find out.

Edit - online says ground beef . Have to find out what % .

I will also compare against trader joe and fairway today.


How long can u keep in the freezer....I'm trying to figure out how many lbs to buy....

[melkor1]

as long as its well packaged (vacuum is best), a very very long time. Just make sure the meat isn't open to the freezer air. But the taste is barely affected

Just an update I shopped around tonight.

Trader jokes has grass fed ground beef 85/15 6.49$/lb

The whole foods deal is for also ground beef grass fed 85/15. (5$/lb)

[Big R]

grass fed 85/15 at $5/lb is very good. You'll probably lose around 5% anyways to runoff (unless you're the type to just pour it back onto the beef). Just adjust macros accordingly and enjoy!

[Sammich]

A pasture :drum:

[mister69]

Official.

Bought 12 lbs.

Anyone near a whole foods go there today!

Maybe I should have bought more ? Lol

That's good to know. I always wash the beef and drain the fat.
I'll check fit day for fat Cals in a 8oz pattie
