Safeway to label ground beef by fat content
Safeway, the nations second largest grocery chain, will replace cut based labeling with fat content labels for ground beef. Categories include regular 25 to 28 percent fat, lean 22 to 25 percent, extra lean 18 to 22 percent, and super lean 15 to 18 percent, with prices varying by city. Safeway says the change aligns with consumer reports on fat content and that grinding reduces taste differences among cuts.
