Hamburger Meat: Beware The Labelling

Ground beef is notorious for having lots of saturated fat - this is what the labels are for - however:

A test of four packages of hamburger ranging from 10 percent to 27 percent fat found that they all contained a different amount of fat than labeled. Two samples had much less than advertised, and two had much more. The most egregious difference was the hamburger marked as 10 percent fat contained more than 15 percent fat.

The consumer report also points to the cost relative to fat content:

Mislabeled meat can be costly for consumers because low fat meat is more expensive. The meat from Johnnie's marked 10 percent fat was $4.29 a pound -- 60 cents more than meat containing 20 percent fat.

Again, it seems that healthier food is more expensive.
