Beef Shelf Life
The shelf-life of beef is of significant importance in the retail marketplace. Shelf-life is defined as the period of time between packaging of a product and its end use when product properties remain acceptable to the product user. Shelf-life properties may include appearance, texture, flavor, color and nutritive value. Simply put, shelf-life is the amount of time that passes before meat becomes unpalatable or unfit for human consumption because of the growth of spoilage organisms. A new checkoff-funded fact sheet titled Beef Shelf-Life addresses shelf-life expectations for various beef packaging types.
