>Separate 95g fat
>95/368 = 26%
>99% lean cooked beef

Am I retarded?

[Anonymous No.13158860]

yes because the meat is cooking in the fat and absorbing the flavor of it.

Also you're not going to drain off all the fat stuck to the meat.

[Anonymous No.13158864]

I mean the beef was basically cooking in its own fat and has absorbed some of it, so it's not equal to 99%.

Then what is this glorious nectar and why is it 26% the weight?

you're assuming that's ALL the fat, and there's none in the meat still.

If you're buying fatty beef, but throwing away the delicious fat calories you are retarded. Save it in the refrigerator to cook a steak or something.

It's like the people who buy bacon, render all the fat out and throw that away. What the fuck was the point?

[Anonymous No.13158911]

Why is the extracted fat equal to 26% of the total weight?

[Anonymous No.13158912]

If you want to make fatty ground beef leaner throw it in a strainer and run hot water over it.

Again, you're assuming the fat you extracted is all the fat there is.

You're also assuming that the advertised number (73% lean) is accurate.

Cook with it. Like everybody used to before the 1950's when everyone started getting obese from all the refined vegetable oils and added sugars.

What's the point if you throw it away? You saved three cents? Cool.

Pretty sure you have to render it first so it doesn't go rancid on you. But yeah, it's not a bad idea.

You're wrong. People who grew up between the 1920's and the 1950's had the worst living conditions in American history. They were begging to be drafted into WW2 because of how awful the economic climate was.

Because lean meat still has fat in it retard.
>Am I retarded.
Yes.
Muscle tissue (lean meat) has fat interspersed in it.
Fatty adipose tissue (not lean meat) is where animals and humans store fat that is not needed in muscle tissue. As the fat in the muscle tissue is used it is replaced with the fat from the adipose tissue.

Basically biology bruh.

>From the 1930s up until 1980, the average American after-tax income adjusted for inflation tripled,[13] which translated into higher living standards for the American population.[14][15][16][17][18][19][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32] Between 1949 and 1969, real median family income grew by 99.3%.[33] From 1946 to 1978, the standard of living for the average family more than doubled.[34] Average family income (in real terms) more than doubled from 1945 up until the 1970s, while unemployment steadily fell until it reached 4% in the 1960s.[35] Between 1949-50 and 1965–66, median family income (in constant 2009 dollars) rose from $25,814 to $43,614,[36] and from 1947 to 1960, consumer spending rose by a full 60%, and for the first time, as noted by Mary P. Ryan, "the majority of Americans would enjoy something called discretionary income, earnings that were secure and substantial enough to permit them to enter sectors of the marketplace that were once reserved for the affluent."[37] In 1960, Americans were, on average, the richest people in the world by a massive margin.[38]

Fry bread, wholemeal bread, beef stew, chili, confit chicken, German pancakes, gravy, any bean soup, Yorkshire puddings, literally anything that requires lard.

You boil bacon fat in water to denature proteins and remove sugars that would cause it to go rancid and then take the fat cap off after refrigerating, then melt and place into jars. Why are you posting on this board as a critic if you don't even know the basics?

Cooking burgers and frying onions in beef tallow gives them more beefy flavor and unironically makes them feel less "greasy" since it has a much nicer consistency than oil.

theres a million things to use bacon grease for retard. fry potatoes in it. cook a fried egg with it. scramble an egg with it. use it to oil your grill for a steak or burger. anything where you use oil and a slight bacon flavor wouldnt ruin it you can use bacon grease. ive kept a jar of bacon grease in my fridge for the past 15 years. makes the best green beans when you saute them in the grease

1920's till the end of WW2 were abysmal no matter how many wiki articles you cite. 25% of the population were out of work and dumpster diving was the norm. Subtracting years should not be this difficult.

While you btfo that other poster, your wikipedia quote is horrendously dishonest. It equates higher taxation to a higher standard of living and not industrialization, and entirely omits the stagnation of american wagers from the 1980's onward (thanks to government monetary policy)

>95/368 = 26%
This is wrong. Should be divided by 453.
>27%fat of 453g is 123g
>remove 95g leaves 28g fat out of 453-95=358g
>28/385=8% lean
This is assuming the 95g you removed is all fat and you didn't add any to cook it. Also water evaporated so you have less meat so you actually have higher % fat. However when reading food lables it always assumes raw stuff so calling it ~12% lean cooked is confusing. You should just remember there is only 28g fat left if you're trying to counting calories.

I didn't want to copypaste 10 long paragraphs, nor did I think anyone would actually go read the article, but it does go on to say that due to the econ policies enacted in the1980's, the murrican standards of living began to decline after the 1990's in comparison to other wealthy nations. Not dishonesty. Brevity. World Wide Web of information, and you call me out for not spoonfeeding a dingaling an easily found recent history lesson?

The greatest period of US growth occurred in the 50's when the marginal tax rate on the extremely wealthy was 70%+. We need a return to those days along with a 100% inheritance tax and we're going to get it.
