Food Budget

In my freezer are two packs of 500g minced beef (similar to ground I believe) @ £1.94 each
1kg = £3.88 or $6.25
1kg = 2.2lb
$2.84/lb Edited thanks to Ali's better maths

This is low fat steak mince from the reduced cabinet though, which is why I bought two.
The sell-by date was the date on which I bought them, and froze them same day. So they are decent mince, and not Value Mince.

Value Mince (from which you have to skim half the volume in fat - I don't knoow what chuck is, but I don't think it's this) is £2.50 per kg.
£2.50 = $4.03
1kg = 2.20lb
$1.83/lb
