Tips:
Meat-Buying Tips:
Make sure that packaged meat isn't past its "sell-by" date and that there's not much moisture in the packaging.
Touch it if possible--it should be firm and not soft.
Look for bright red (not gray) meat. Vacuum-packed meat will be darker looking and should turn red as soon as it's exposed to air.
