What it is

Organic ground beef is a food product made from the muscle tissue of cattle that have been raised according to USDA organic standards. This means the cattle are fed organic feed, have access to pasture, and are not given hormones or antibiotics. The meat is then ground into small pieces.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use organic ground beef as a primary ingredient to provide protein and flavor in various prepared foods. It is commonly found in products like frozen entrees, baby food, and pre-formed burger patties.

Health notes

As a whole food, organic ground beef is regulated by the FDA as a food product, not as an additive. It is a good source of protein, iron, and B vitamins. However, it can also be high in saturated fat; the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (2025-2030) recommend limiting saturated fat intake to less than 10% of daily calories. JECFA and EFSA do not evaluate whole foods like ground beef as food additives.
