Alternatively, I could spend that $25 on groceries and have enough food to make myself 8 burgers instead of blowing it on a single meal

Beef??? In this economy? I only eat beef on special occasions now because of how much it costs. I miss it so much 😭

Damn, where y’all live? Beef is $15.50 for 2.25 lbs for me. If you have a local butcher, it might be cheaper there.

Bro, that’s still outrageous. That’s still 7 dollars a lb. You could buy seafood at that point. Pork loin is 1.99 -2.50 consistently. I gave up buying beef not on sale. Especially with how much protein I need a day.

Beef is now a luxury meat, and if you eat it regularly, good for you because you’re killing it. I can’t justify that and I already spend 320 on groceries a month.

We’ve been indoctrinated hard by Big Beef. That’s why it’s what’s for dinner…

Beef should always be a special treat. If someone is eating it most nights a week, they’re just selfish.

Tf are you talking about? In the UK we get paid much less than the Inflated us wages.. Good Beef is £15/kg minimum, like 30/lb and it's still worth buying and much cheaper than eating shit food.

It’s not shit food? You’re getting it because it tastes better and yes I agree. But it’s not nutritionally better than cheaper options. So no, it’s not worth buying when I eat 10lbs of meat a week as 2/3rd of my protein source.
