Is the cost of beef suet going up

  • Had to buy suet for £1.58! in Sainsburys yesterday and then annoyingly saw it for 67p in Tesco today, so now have 3 cheap boxes. Still showing at the higher price on mysupermarket.

    At £1.58 for 200g it was more expensive by weight than the M&S casserole steak, for the stew which was £3.33 for 500g as part of their 3 for £10 meat offer, which is clearly ridiculous.
  • The suet is now £1.10 in Tesco, but Morrisons have it down from 67p to 50p.

    Offer ends 24 Dec.
  • yes, i bought a couple from Morrisons the other day. Also, their roast beef and pork joint are also on offer too (not sure what price but pretty cheap).

    I low carb and eat averagely 14 free range organic eggs per week, 1kg organic live natural yogurt, 100g 90% cocoa chocolate and at least 250g cheese. I cook using ghee, Aberdeen Angus beef dripping, lard, butter and Extra Virgin olive oil.
    .

    With out waching the link.

    Is to simplisitic to lump all saturates into one group. Same as poly's and mono's.
    Your have to break it down into each individual fat.

    I mention something I read ages ago.
    A diet high in saturated has not been proven to increase the risk of heart attacks.
    Its a diet high in trans fatty acid and low in omega's 3 oils etc that is. Its just this diet is normally high in saturates as well

    well, i bought one pack for me (dumplings, nom!) and one for the birdies as shall be making suet balls for them this w/e. they need our help, so if you could make your own, will save a fair bit instead of shop-bought;)

    ps. just came across lard yesterday in the s/m, and really that's actually what i should use for making suet balls for the birds, not the suet that i had intended for the dumplings! it would be more economical for lard (altho' that's gone up as well this year!)

    Just spotted Asda have it at 67p again.

    Time to stock up in case it's only a temporary price drop.
