What it is

Partially defatted chopped beef is a meat product made from beef trimmings and fat. The fat is removed through a process called defatting, leaving a leaner, chopped beef product. It is often used as a protein source in processed meat products.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add partially defatted chopped beef to provide a lean protein source and texture in processed foods. It is commonly found in products like chili, soups, and other prepared meat dishes.

Health notes

Partially defatted chopped beef is considered a standard food ingredient and is not subject to specific FDA regulations as a food additive. It is a source of protein and other nutrients found in beef. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have not specifically evaluated this ingredient in isolation, as it is a basic foodstuff.

Allergen info

Partially defatted chopped beef is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
