Talk:Ground beef

message: Also known as ground beef, this confused the hell out of my local supermarket. What the fuck, America. *facepalms* Contributions/86.30.14.139 (talk) 17:14, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ground Round 

message: This article needs rewriting to give it a more international flavour. In particular, according to the first paragraph Minced Beef is only known as Ground Beef in North America so the title should be changed to Minced Beef to reflect majority international usage. I do get fed up with IAA  (Insular American Articles)!

message: maybe this article should be about all ground meat.  Does it make sense to have a separate article for each type? ike9898 15:29, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It makes sense to have articles for different types as they have different uses, manufactures, and ways to make it with different regulations for example crawdads or crawfish are not shrimp and should not be labeled as shrimp ass they are different TL;DR they are different foods  Woolmadj (talk) 16:45, 18 January 2023 (UTC)
thread_title: Generalize?

message: 'Mince' and 'mince meat' should go to a disambiguation page to differentiate between mincemeat (now a meatless pie filling) and ground meat/beef.

thread_title:  Mincemeat v. Mince Meat 

message: Shouldn't this page include explanations for terms like
Lean 92/8
Extra Lean 96/4
Sirloin 90/10
I mean what's with the division? A completely uneducated guess on my part would be "X" grams of meat per "Y" grams of fat I came to this wiki page to see if my guess was correct or not only to find that it doesn't mention them at all. Bushido Brown (talk) 18:46, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: This page is Lacking

message: Hello, I'd like to add the following text about a recent United States National Research Council report to the food safety section of this article:
:To ensure the safety of food distributed through the National School Lunch Program, food banks, and other federal food and nutrition programs, the United States Department of Agriculture has established food safety and quality requirements for the ground beef it purchases. A 2010 National Research Council report reviewed the scientific basis of the Department’s ground beef safety standards, evaluated how the standards compare to those used by large retail and commercial food service purchasers of ground beef, and looked at ways to establish periodic evaluations of the Federal Purchase Ground Beef Programhttp://dels.nas.edu/Report/Evaluation-Food-Safety/13069. The report found that although the safety requirements could be strengthened using scientific concepts, the prevention of future outbreaks of foodborne disease will depend on eliminating contamination during production and ensuring meat is properly cooked before it is served.http://dels.nas.edu/Materials/Report-In-Brief/4332-Ground-Beef
Does this seem OK? Earlgrey101 (talk) 17:54, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Propose expanding food safety section

message: It is not the role of the mover of the Requested move discussion to close the discussion and move the article.  This is out of process, and completely contradicts the instructions at Wikipedia:Requested moves.  It is up to an uninvolved administrator to evaluate the discussion and close it.  By definition, as the proposer Brodey is not uninvolved.  The closure should be reverted immediately (the end result looks like it will almost certainly be the same, but still...).

message: I'm slightly confused that someone has copyedited away the other half of "hamburger meat", surely hamburger on its own is generally used to refer to a formed patty or assembled burger and not simply mince, sorry "ground beef", in its raw state? 85.210.100.0 (talk) 23:56, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

message: The page Mince Rallies redirects here, as referenced on the page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Down_Down. However the page doesn't indicate what "Mince Rallies" actually means, or what it has to do with minced/ground beef? I still have no idea what it is. Mikeholden (talk) 05:48, 9 October 2018 (UTC)

message: This is a very US biased section. Chuck, Round and Sirloin refer to different parts of the animal in different countries.
For instance, in British, Australian and South African butchery, Sirloin would be called Rump Steak https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rump_steak
Round would be Topside or Silverside in British butchery https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round_steak
Chuck could be a Braising Steak https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chuck_steak
