GROUND BEEF BITS: Packages ground meats are typically high in fat because
the butcher doesn't normally trim away the excess fat
before grinding...sometimes even extra pieces of fat are
added into the meat. These days you can look for specially
marked lower fat packages and the lower the fat percentage,
the less your meat will shrink when cooking. It is best to
avoid ground meats that are more than 15% fat by weight.
What about ground turkey? Don't automatically assume it is
better for you than ground beef. Available now nationwide,
ground turkey is typically made from grinding together the
dark meat, skin and fat. These products can be just as high
in fat but can be a great healthy choice as long as you
check the labels.
