Chili Label Rules Highlight Meat Content Differences
Consumers learn meat content standards for chili products. Chili Con Carne must contain at least 40 percent meat, while Chili Con Carne with Beans requires 25 percent meat. Prices reflect the meat percentage, though products may exceed the minimum.
Price Per Serving Guides Meat Purchases
When shopping for meat the price per serving matters more than price per pound. The guide estimates servings per pound: boned or ground yields 3 to 4 servings, small bone 2 to 3 servings, large bone 1 to 2 servings.
