Beef (Ground, 80% Lean Meat / 20% Fat) is a meat food whose cut, visible fat, and raw or cooked state strongly affect its composition. It provides protein, monounsaturated fat, potassium, and iron. Choose intact cold packaging and refrigerate promptly. Use raw poultry or ground meat within one to two days and larger fresh meat cuts within three to five days, or freeze for longer storage.

Interesting fact
Color alone cannot confirm that meat is safe
Pigments, oxygen exposure, packaging, and cooking can all change meat color. A food thermometer is the reliable endpoint: poultry requires 165°F/74°C, ground meats 160°F/71°C, and whole beef, pork, veal, and lamb cuts 145°F/63°C followed by a three-minute rest.
