Just checked my mince which I bought today and it's lower in everything esp the sat fat per 100 g. It is extra lean steak mince from Sainsburys. I just make my own burgers out of the mince.

 

[Debs154]

Thanks Saska
I was interested because they'd be handy to have in a lot cheaper than extra lean mince - do you think they are ok?

 

[Saska]

Hiya Debs, I count myself as a Dukan novice and so will let the experienced Dukaneers answer your question. Btw my extra lean mince was 3x500 g for £10 which I thought not bad and will make lots of burgers and cottage pies etc. Saska

Debs the burgers are fine, burgers should be less than 10% fat which those are. The stats looks very good, would live to know which ones they are I would get some.

 

[Jeniferous]

Let us know where they are from!

 

[Debs154]

I thought they looked ok but wanted to check

Sainsbury's online groceries

 

[Eccab77]

Bingo on my way to Sainsbury's! thanks Debs.

That's good news for you Debs, I'm pleased you got a response. I wont be buying any tho as I get scared buying prepared foods like this as who knows what kind of beef is used. My uncle has a meat business and I hear too many tales of what goes into sausages and burgers Having said that if they are covered with ketchup/mayo etc then the flavour is masked but hey each to their own. Enjoy and have a great day, Saska

woohoo finally someone has found burgers that are good. I have looked everywhere and no look so far. Make my own most of the time.

 

[Debs154]

Sorry everyone - I found these on mysupermarket.com but couldn't find them online when I looked - has anyone found them in store?

 

[dukannotsofatty]

there isn't a sainsburys close to me for every day shopping, hopefully someone else might find them.,
