What it is
Cooked seasoned ground beef is a food ingredient made from beef that has been ground, cooked, and mixed with various seasonings. It is a common component in many convenience foods, providing a savory flavor and protein.
Why it's used
Manufacturers add cooked seasoned ground beef to products primarily as a protein source and for its savory flavor and texture. It is frequently found in prepared meals such as pizzas, pasta dishes, and various deli items.
Health notes
Cooked seasoned ground beef is a food item, not a food additive, and is regulated as such by the FDA. As a red meat product, it is a source of protein, iron, and other nutrients. However, it can also contribute to dietary intake of saturated fat; the 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend limiting saturated fat to under 10% of daily calories. Neither JECFA nor EFSA evaluates whole food ingredients like ground beef for safety as an additive.
