Where are you finding good quality ground beef for <$3.00/lb?
Good quality, to me, implies the animals were not mistreated, were fed a reasonable (preferably grain free) diet, the farm is sustainably ranching the animals it grows, etc.
I recently bought a whole beef from a local farmer, and it was organic, 100% grass fed, and it worked out to $7/lb. I'd be shocked to learn there was a waaay cheaper option out there.
- HillaryBriss 8y agosorry for the confusion. a frozen package containing just two 4 oz Beyond Burger patties cost us $6.00. i.e. we paid $3.00 for each one quarter pound Beyond Burger. so, if you can find hamburger meat for less than $12 a pound, you're paying less than we paid for Beyond Burgers.

- jlavine 8y agoYou can buy pasture-raised / grass-fed ground beef from Australia, and US-raised ground bison, in US supermarkets for $9-10 per pound, so no, it wouldn't. Even for cheap corn- and soy-fed CAFO-raised meat, agricultural subsidies lower the cost by a negligeable fraction.
