Default Mince?

I am trying to find Mince listed in the foods list - I think mince to Americans is actually hamburger?? Anyway I want to enter prime beef mince. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would enter it as a customised food but I buy it with no nutritional info on the packet - I am fairly sure that there are no fillers, additives etc

thanks

Hi Pinkbug,

Yes, those Americans have funny names for things. Beef mince is called ground beef in North America.

MyPLAN gives you a selection according to how much fat is in the mince. I always buy the fattiest and call it 30% fat, although I'm not totally sure exactly how much fat it has. One can only do one's best.

Cheers,

Roz
