I have been working in grocery store meat departments for over 30 years and it just kills me to see how little people really know about buying fresh meat, seafood and poultry. Most people do not understand the labeling information and the basic terms that are used in the meat industry today.
There is not a day goes by that I do not get asked some question about certain cuts of meat, questions about items listed on a packaging label or “what does this word or phrase mean”. Labeling and laws in the food industry are becoming more complex and confusing every day. After reading my book you will come to understand what the packaging and labeling really means.
I know you want to know if the labeling on the foods you eat are reliable and truthful. I know you are truly interested in knowing if the foods you are eating are healthy. In this book I have answered over 51 questions that are on the minds of most meat department shoppers today. Not only have I covered labeling terms, but some of those unusual meat department terms like “Boston Butt”, “Rack of Lamb”, “Picnic” or my favorite “Pink Slime” and many more are all explained for you.
I want to help the everyday shopper become a more informed shopper. I have worked really hard to bring this information together so you can benefit from my more than 30 years of experience.
The following pages will be your grocery, meat, poultry, pork and seafood shopping guide to understanding the terms and laws regulating our food industry today. So let’s get started.
