Don’t be fooled. They’re selling you meat…

One of the most common frauds is selling:

Old meat as if it were fresh

Thawed meat sold as “freshly cut”

Low-quality meat disguised as premium

Meat treated with chemicals to improve its color and smell

Even, in some extreme cases, meat blends that don’t match what the label says

Often, the meat you buy has been stored for days or weeks, but it is “revived” to appear freshly arrived.
