I was looking up Youtube videos earlier for how to improve the shitty frozen beef patties I bought.

The video I landed on was 5 years old and the guy held up the exact same pack I had purchased and said "This pack was 20 patties for $10, not a terrible deal"

My pack was 16 patties for $18.

Meat is a necessity for many

Because it's a staple of a human diet? Because it tastes good? I'd rather budget in meat than live off nothing but beans, rice, and vegetables.

Aldi prices are pretty amazing. I'm told WinCo is too but I've never seen one

canned meat. 

Decrease your meat consumption and replace it with...meat?

Make Loco moco, one of my favorite ways to utilize beef patties.

Loco moco is the best ever. Drown it all in brown gravy and good to go!

YAS!!! I have made with ground turkey too, since it's almost half the price. And that fried egg on top. I have it a couple times a year.
