What percentage of fat? The last time I bought burgers from Woolies I was constantly fighting fat flare-ups on the BBQ. I'm now making my own with minced beef.
23.2g of fat per 100g hahahaha
Ah they got this all screwed up..
Australian Beef ?, (83%) water
Vegetable fibre = sawdust?
No that's Vegetable Fibre (3628)
What makes this a breakfast pattie?
Marketing, but most likely the size of the patties.
Glad I wasn’t the only one wondering that.
They put the newspaper into your breakfast burger
[looks closer] hey.. Deng Xiaoping died.
Time of day…
Mineral Salt (451) is a known carcinogenic. (450) and (452) are safe.
E451 - Triphosphates: Mineral salt. Safe, but is known to cause nausea, diarrhoea, lowering of blood pressure, cyanosis and muscle spasms in large quantities.
Sodium ascorbate has been found to produce cytotoxic effects in various malignant cell lines, which include melanoma cells that are particularly susceptible.
Recent studies have shown that the stabilizer E450 is a carcinogen; use of this compound in the food industry of the European Union and the United States has long been prohibiteduse of this compound in the food industry of the European Union and the United States has long been prohibited…
Seems everything is bad for you.
offer these for breakfast ….. polite way to get the sleep over guest to leave ….
Tell your guest you have to get up at 4am for a work flight. Avoid having them sleep over all together.
Worth getting?
I really enjoy these. I think it's worth the buy. They're not too salty like the US version.
Make your own with pork mince. Will taste heaps better
Exactly. And making a patty out of pork mince will probably take all of 30 seconds
full of unwanted "extras", I only want beef 100%, nothing added, like starch and other nonsense.
just make your own patties out of mince salt and pepper.
will taste better and far better for you
if you cant do this, you dont deserve hands
What happens if I don't want to use my hands?
Don't be a wuss and just wash your hands after.
use your feet for all i care… or just buy some of these frankenpatties
Add to that… parsley, garlic, garam marsala, tomato sauce, and a sprinkle of taco salt mix.
Mince is sadly getting above $12 odd a kg now :(
been down that route over the years…ive gone back to basics with just mince salt & pepper, best done on the BBQ for the flame grill taste.
add extra flavours with sauces and fillings…the burgers are better at pointless martyr's.
Especially if it's just because it's a thin patty… You don't even need to make them into patties you can just put a small ball of mince into the pan and press it out…
good call ….just use your feet to smash them out like Froodlme above
So once the water has evaporated, you end up with 50 grams of mince.
Excellent, dinner for 8 and if you put a lid on the pan, you can save on mineral water for the guests.
That’s why it’s 50% off
50% 'off' means just that.
Approaching expiry.
Paying $11.67/kg for 23% fat. lol
Wait til you find out how much people pay for A5 wagyu
13g protein/17g fat per burger is a baaaad ratio.
Animal fat is not the criminal you've been led to believe.
“Ew, it’s all fat!” they say as they go back to their salami
i don't eat salami for this very reason; ham, turkey, or chicken lunch meats have good macro ratios.
it's twice as calorie dense as protein or carbs- while protein is more filling. for anyone who has any interest in not becoming obese, macros in this ratio are not beneficial.
to illustrate my point, a KFC Zinger Fillet has only 10g fat and 21g protein- a far healthier option.
Most sheep and cattle (meat) are fed,injected drenched and back-lined with stuff that never ever reaches the label of what you eat. So either eat in ignorant bliss and accept it impacts on them and eventually therefore you, or don't eat it. Newsflash, this country has no right or science to claim our food is clean OR green. We may be "less toxic" than a lot of other OS producers, but pulllleaeeeze, there aint no green or clean in MOST commercial ag produced food.
Crops have multiple chemical exposures too. At seeding,during growth and all through the process.
Do consumers really think fruit and veges get to dodge disease,fungal and insect attack, bacterial infections etc, just because Strayan sourced?
Unless it's grown totally organically (and it can be verified) or hydroponically without chemicals on the crop, we consume man made chemicals.
How about grass fed organic?
If it is claimed to be 'organic', then clearly it should be raised on organic farms, ergo, no chemicals
(zero synthetic herbicides,pesticides,fungicides etc) used on the pastures or supplementary feed they eat, and the stock should not use or require man made drugs/chemicals during their life.
Labels are very cheap. Willing participants are an endless resource
Organic does not mean 'no chemicals'. Organic produce can actually have more chemicals used because they are restricted from using modern (more efficient) pesticides, and therefore end up using more of the older, less efficient pesticides.
Also, separating chemicals into 'synthetic' and 'natural' is a fallacy ('nature fallacy'). Chemicals are what they are, and how they are produced is irrelevant to what they do.
Organic labelling is largely a sham.
@djgreedo: Agree.( *I'm just using terms consumers use more commonly or are green-washed with)
We eat a shit load of manufactured chemicals. Hormone free is a joke. What about back-lines,and other internal external parasite treatments? Antibiotics are almost normal in feed lots,if not all mass produced supp fed livestock.Poultry aren't immune to the process, either.
*Man made,synthetic,fabricated, to me it all means it doesn't naturally grow on trees, so to speak.
Organic labelling is largely a sham.
Would definitely avoid these based on all the filler ingredients… Better off just making your own patties out of some good mincemeat
Breakfast was so 2001… Everyone is intermittent fasting now :)
Because we can't afford 3 meals a day…
Fasting is the best bargain of all !!
Put 'em in a bowl with milk…
Less than a quarter pounder patty.
Second highest ingredient water, no wonder they spit everywhere in the frypan.
Worth the clean-up though for $3.50, good find OP.
