Why is fresh beef in the supermarket so expensive, but sauced beef very cheap?

Raw beef ** is high, why is the sauce beef in the supermarket very cheap? Supermarket workers tell the truth! Nowadays, the price level is continuing to rise, especially the pork ** has been rising, which has led to the price of beef has also risen.

When it comes to beef, it is very popular in life, it is the third most expensive meat product in the world, and it is also due to the rich and colorful nutritional content of beef and the good taste. There are many ways to cook beef, which can not only be used for stir-frying, stewing, or making sauce beef, and sauce beef has always become a favorite food for everyone.

But some people are particularly puzzled, why is fresh beef so expensive, while supermarket sauce beef is so cost-effective? Let's find out! The sauce beef in the supermarket is often so cost-effective, but also because it is not selected, fresh beef **, all made of high-quality and low-cost beef.

In fact, when it comes to frozen things, everyone is not interested, no matter what is not fresh, compared to the current price of beef is definitely lower, and the supermarket sauce beef is made of frozen beef in English, because it is all pickled, so when you eat it, you can't taste whether it is fresh at all.

There is no doubt that the soy sauce beef made in the supermarket is made from the beef in the supermarket, and it is very likely that it is not sold out, so it is not easy to waste it, so there is no need to worry about the quality of the beef.

There is a kind of beef called generative beef in the sales market, which is made with some beef scraps, although it is beef, but the taste of eating is not the same, and in the process of generating this kind of scraps, a lot of additives are used in it, so the cost of beef produced is naturally low, so the price is cheap.

The reason why the sauce beef in the supermarket is so cheap is also because it is not used, fresh beef oil, all of which are made of ** cheap beef. Supermarket employees revealed that most of the sauced beef in the supermarket is made with several kinds of meat. The first kind of quick-frozen beef is actually not cold when it comes to quick-frozen things, no matter what is not fresh, compared to today's beef ** is definitely lower, and the sauce beef in the supermarket.

It may be because the ingredients used in these beefs are very fresh, it may be some leftovers, and it may also be meat that has been frozen for a long time.

Today's beef is relatively scarce, and the nutritional value is particularly rich, so it is more expensive.

Reasons why imported beef is cheaper:

1. The cost of domestic and foreign breeding.

Most of the foreign countries are natural breeding pastures, beef cattle are mostly large-scale breeding, and beef cattle breeds are good, the level of science and technology is high, the feed is cheap, take 15 years, the global grain harvest is good, which directly reduces the cost of imported beef farmers, then the beef wholesale into China is naturally low.

2. Problems with foreign eating habits.

This may be an aspect that many beef wholesalers tend to overlook. Take the United States as an example, most of the beef Americans eat is mainly fried and roasted, unlike China and love to eat braised beef, so tendons (tendon meat is the muscle on the thigh, wrapped in a meat membrane, with hidden tendons, moderate hardness, regular lines, and the most suitable for marinade) basically has no effect in the United States, and Americans basically do not take beef to marinate. Therefore, it is conceivable that the tendons of the United States can only be exported to other countries, and they are relatively cheap.

Of course, there are many other countries that do the same.

3. Foreign market mechanisms.

Robust and low-cost in the transaction process.

Then there is the financial subsidy.

1 3 to 1 2 of farmers' income in developed countries comes from subsidies. Contrary to China's quotas and high tariffs on imported agricultural products, some countries have imposed special taxes on exported agricultural products. The high cost of domestic beef farmers, the lack of capital liquidity, the low subsidy, the backward gene technology, the failure of breeding, and the decrease in the land available for animal husbandry are all reasons why domestic beef is higher than imported beef.

4. Good variety and high level of science and technology.

Everyone knows that the most tender and expensive imported beef is Wagyu beef, and it is said that they are all cows that grew up listening to ** drinking. The quality of this Wagyu beef is indeed worthy of its reputation. Because of this, Wagyu ** is more expensive. Japan is the origin of Wagyu beef. Australia.

The Wagyu beef is a Bo product. The other one is the Angus cattle.

Angus cattle are also a very good breed of beef cattle.

5. Financial subsidies.

In addition, financial subsidies provide that 1 3 to 1 2 of farmers' income in developed countries comes from subsidies. Contrary to China's quotas and high tariffs on imported agricultural products, some countries have imposed special taxes on exported agricultural products. The high cost of domestic beef farmers, the lack of capital liquidity, the low subsidy, the backward gene technology, the failure of breeding, and the decrease in the land available for animal husbandry are all reasons why domestic beef is higher than imported beef.

Because frozen beef is not as fresh as fresh beef, the taste is relatively old, the taste is not very tender, and the frozen beef is generally stored for a long time, fresh beef is easy to distinguish the freshness and variety quality, and the characteristics of beef after freezing are difficult to distinguish, so frozen beef is cheaper.

The selling price of frozen beef is relatively cheap, usually frozen beef is half cheaper than fresh beef, this is because frozen beef is not as fresh as fresh beef, the taste is relatively old, and the taste is not very tender, and the frozen beef is generally stored for a long time, fresh beef is easy to distinguish the freshness and variety quality, and the characteristics of beef after freezing are difficult to distinguish, so frozen beef is cheaper.

For general frozen beef, the color of frozen meat with quality assurance is mostly light gray, while the fat and fat are white, and there is no peculiar smell, and the gloss can be observed by the naked eye. If the meat looks dark, or turns yellow, black, or smells foul, it means that the meat has gone bad and can no longer be eaten.

You can also use your hands to touch to distinguish the freshness of beef, fresh beef is gently touched with your fingers, a little sticky, there will be no sticky blood after the fingers leave the beef, if you don't feel sticky when you touch it, but when the fingers stick to the thin feeling of blood water, it means that it is meat with more serious water injection.

Sauced beef is to select a piece of beef tendon meat with good quality, add cinnamon, star anise, bay leaf, cardamom, rock sugar, chili, pepper and other spices, put it in a pressure cooker or rice cooker for stewing, and make delicious sauced beef; Because the ** of beef is more expensive, and the production process is troublesome, if you want to make a profit, the ** of sauce beef has to be sold a little higher.

First of all, prepare a piece of good beef tendon meat, clean it, copy it out in boiling water, cut it into small pieces for later use, heat the oil in the pot, add green onions, ginger, garlic and stir-fry fragrant, put in the tendon meat, add salt, chicken essence, cooking wine, soy sauce and other seasonings to stir-fry, and then pour in water and simmer for 40 minutes to get out of the pot.

Cut the beef into small pieces of the same size, put some condiments, large peppercorns, put a little chili, tomato paste. Stir up and bring to a boil in a pot. It may be that the market price is more expensive, the production process is more troublesome, and the materials used are good.

The first point is that the purchase channels are different, because the large supermarket has its logistics company, its vegetable base, and its own slaughterhouse, so it is cheaper than the market.

First of all, there is a small misunderstanding here, that is, we will use the raw beef we see as the cost to measure whether the sauce beef is cheap, in fact, if the large supermarkets take the goods for a long time, the cost is much cheaper, however, the supermarket's sauce beef, their raw raw beef is generally not our local yellow beef at all, nor is it fresh dairy beef, but frozen dairy beef imported from abroad, which is not fresh at all, but it is still edible, which certainly increases the preservation cost of consumers. At this time, the ** will be lowered, which is also a natural thing.

The second point is that the marketing method is different, they can not make money with vegetables, there are so many things in the supermarket, you go to the supermarket, you always have to carry some other goods, and then talk about meat, he earns less, buys more, for example, meat earns a pound, 1000 is not earned, this is all on the surface, in the marketing way, there are deeper, so it is somewhat inconvenient to disclose, in a word, the supermarket saves a lot of money for everyone's life.

It may be beef, but it may be frozen beef from a certain country, or zombie beef in a sense.

First of all, the current beef, especially Chinese beef, more than 20 yuan a catty, not to say that the cost is not enough, that is, even the belt meat can not be sold so cheaply, so at the current market price, it can be said that less than 35 is basically unreliable beef, you must pay attention when buying.

Secondly, now in the physical market, there is basically no beef less than 35, but there are more than 20 pieces of beef on the Internet, and there are more than 20 pieces of beef in our supermarket, but you will find that these beef are basically the so-called imported beef, and these beef may also be real beef, but they are all frozen or almost close to the expiration date, these beef may be edible, but it should be leisurely.

First of all, because the supermarket has a very large amount of purchases, so they can enjoy the wholesale price, and secondly, because most of the meat is not fresh, but some quick-frozen products, after the food is frozen, some nutrients will be lost, so it will be relatively low.

The beef in the supermarket is generally not as fresh as the restaurant, and there are fewer people who buy it, and the meat quality is not delicious, so it will become low.

Because they are all parts of the cattle with some leftovers, the cost is low, and the procedures are legal, but the quality of the beef is not so good.

Not only is beef cheaper in supermarkets, but also pork and chicken are cheaper than in vegetable markets.

When buying beef in the supermarket, you will find that it is often cheaper than the vegetable market, and there will even be a gap of more than 5 yuan. Now that the beef ** is so high, this gap is still obvious, so why is there such a big ** difference?

1.Most of the beef you see in supermarkets is thawed. If you look closely at the tray where the meat is placed, you will see that there is a lot of water stored, which is actually the thawing that comes out.

Although frozen meat has no obvious harm to the human body, it is better to have fresh meat in terms of taste and nutritional value!

2.The meat source in the vegetable market is basically delivered directly by the local meat factory, and there will not be many channels. But the supermarket is different, and sometimes you may be buying imported beef.

Why is imported beef cheaper? One is that most of the cattle raised abroad are raised on natural pastures, and the feed cost is low; The second is that the cost of land in foreign countries is also very low, and large-scale farming can be carried out.

3.Nowadays, supermarket competition is dayless every day, and the difference of a few cents between goods may affect customer flow. Like our local RT-Mart, eggs are always cheaper than the vegetable market, just to drain the traffic.

If you often visit the supermarket, you will find that not only beef, but also pork and chicken are cheaper than the vegetable market, in fact, the reasons are almost the same, either frozen meat and fresh meat are sold together, or imported meat, and there is reserve meat put by the state. I've seen a lot of supermarkets sell stock meat as regular meat after thawing!

Written at the end: Nowadays, prices are skyrocketing, not to mention eating beef, eating pork is very luxurious. Although the beef in the supermarket is not as fresh as the vegetable market, it is definitely qualified meat, and this should be completely reassuring.

So being a little cheaper is also a good thing for the wallet!

Because the supermarket may buy synthetic meat, because the cost is cheap, so the purchase is cheap, you have to pay more attention to yourself, and careful observation can distinguish clearly.

Because the supermarket purchase is in batches, dozens of catties or even hundreds of catties at a time, the purchase ** is relatively low.

First, the supermarket purchase volume is relatively large, and the amount is relatively stable, so you can get a more affordable purchase price, and it will naturally be cheaper to sell, and second, the beef is sometimes frozen and not so fresh, so it is cheaper than the fresh one in the market.

Because supermarkets and beef merchants have cooperation, it is relatively low.

I can tell you it's real beef, but it's not the one you bought at the market. There are two main types of cheap beef sold online.

1.Synthetic beef, in this era of science and technology, synthetic meat is not news, a large part of those cheap beef sold online is synthetic beef, the raw materials are basically some leftovers, so it is naturally cheap, but because the quality of these beef is uneven, it may cause potential danger to the human body, so try to eat less.

2.Frozen stock meat, imported meat is cheap, if it is imported stock processed meat, it will be even cheaper, once this meat flows to the Internet, it can naturally be sold at ultra-low prices, and these frozen stock meat also has a more popular name "zombie meat".

In fact, as long as we combine the current market, we can naturally know whether there is a problem with these meats, the simplest example is that the beef in the vegetable market costs 50 yuan a catty, so even if the wholesale price is lower and lower on the Internet, it is impossible to be lower than 40 yuan, ** It is also necessary to make money, and it is impossible to post money. It can be at an ultra-low price**, which is naturally greasy.
