Wal Mart's steaks, which are really bland and leathery, do not even approach this level of awfulness.

Winn Dixie has the best steaks.

I used to watch Masterchef and they would shill for Walmart steaks. "Only 1 in 5 steaks are good enough to be Walmart prime steak" or something like that.

 

[sikkinixx]

Some poor animal died to then be sold as a one dollar steak.

I've really started to think more about that lately, especially when I see the really cheap meat in stores.

Well they're definitely not very tender or juicy in my experience.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

Steaks are not expensive. Hell, there's a place that will cook a steak and deliver it to you, along with a baked potato and a salad for about 15 bucks.

Do not buy a dollar steak.

I think people are under the assumption that steak is some high class luxury food. Honestly, when I was growing up and didn't have a lot of money, that's always how I thought of it. I didn't learn until I started shopping for myself that it's really not as expensive as I thought.

That video tho, holy shit. You couldn't pay me to eat that.

Exactly, just go to costco or cash n carry and buy a big pack of steaks. It cost more up front but cheaper by the pound. please don't eat any kind of non-canned food from a $1 store.

Yes, FDA approved. Much happiness.

For a starter lets have these $1 shrimp I bought out of the trunk of some guys car.

 

[Ponn]

This is like those meat trucks that go around neighborhoods selling shit door to door. I don't trust that shit, it may be meat but no guarantee its from a cow.

 

[katagai]

Makes you wonder what the steak/packaging cost ratio is.

Are they really small shrimps

Did they come out of a hose

 

[Tom Nook]

Saw that at my local Dollar Tree,low quality crap right there. I come to the dollar store for cleaning supplies.

 

[Speevy]

They are city creek shrimp.

You don't want to know.

 

[SliceSabre]

I hate my digestive system enough to try one out.

[Apt101]

I am going to buy a bunch and make Philly cheese steaks out of them.

 

[Volimar]

Dollar Tree has the best Orange slices.

Also they have a nice little selection of sugar free snacks and candies for my diabetic mom. Three soft pretzels for a dollar is nice. And small packs of frozen desserts that are perfectly yummy.

Their batteries last pretty long for a dollar too.

I would never eat frozen meat from a Dollar Tree.

 

[InfiniteBento]

$1 steak sounds disgusting.

it's $1 for a reason and none of those reasons are good.

 

[Desi]

they have had these for a while. Sometimes I get a few. Easy to chop them up into peppersteak.

Lol, yep, I buy the 1-use mops to clean my bathroom.

Hell, Costco sells USDA *prime* steak sometimes. Expensive as hell ($20-$30/lb) but totally worth it.

Nope. Try the ones that come in a plastic container at Walmart. GOAT tier. lol

Most people that shop at Dollar Tree can't afford to spend $30 on a package of steaks or $15 for one meal. When I was on unemployment, $20-30 was often my food budget for an entire week. Also a lot of people in low income areas don't have access to real supermarkets and places like Dollar Tree areas close as they get. I probably wouldn't eat the Dollar Tree steak on its own, but it might be ok made with something else.

At that point it would be better to scrape some money together and buy a cheap grocery store steak for a special dinner night.
A skirt steak from the Spanish food market near me cost about $3.80 and is a way higher quality meat than...that.

Woof, that dollar steak just looks pathetic.

 

[GaimeGuy]

I'd try it, what's the worst that could happen?

 

[DonMigs85]

All the chemical tenderizer descriptions on the packaging certainly don't make it sound appetizing. They must have used the worst cuts from the oldest cows to subject them to that.

Dollar Tree is loaded with useful things that you'd be crazy to buy for more than a dollar.

For example

-Party supplies
-Movie theater candy
-Batteries
-Small storage bins
-Kitchen utensils and silverware
-Toys for the kids
-Puzzles
-Art and drawing supplies
-Poster board and tri board
-Hair brushes
-Toiletries
-Things for decorating your patio
-Halloween and Christmas decorations
-School supplies for teachers (like me)
-Spices
-Figurines
-Lighters

There's plenty of other stuff too. You should go there to look for the random stuff that Wal Mart gets away with charging $3-4 for, and walk right past the freezer section.

or spend less?

3.5 ounces for $1 works out to about $4.57 per pound.

from my local store I can get the following for less.

or for slightly more

but yeah.... interesting that the dollar store is selling these. I don't hit mine up often anyways.

 

[KHlover]

Is meat supposed to be that fatty?

It is. Tastes heavenly. Had a lower-grade cut of the Wagyu tho, which "only" was 100 Euro/kg.

 

[Bluekaveli]

Lmfao today we went there and I joked that my fiancée would pick up one of their dollar pork chops. Any other time ever looks at me like, fuck this but she said it's not bad surprisingly.

 

[Randy Monk]

Is meat supposed to be that fatty?

Wagyu fat is amazing fat. The fat contains the flavour of the meat. Look it up

 

[Trojita]

When that shit turned yellow when it was placed on the grill.

Ugh
