i wouldn't say it's low quality, just not luxury meat.

like ground pork is perfectly fine, it's basically the definition of the concept of meat, it's just that a beef steak is pretty fancy.

This seems normal for western Europe. Meat prices will range from roughly 4 to 55 euros per kilo, ranging fro shitty chicken to prime beef cuts.

I know you don’t realize how incredibly cheap food (even meat) is in Germany, that’s ok.

It’s hard to find good quality meat these days, I eat a lot less meat than I used to.

The quality is not what it was 5-10 years ago and the prices are much higher. When I go grocery shopping I feel like I scour the meat section for anything that is both a good price and looks good, and most of the time I just leave unsatisfied. I bought a chest freezer so now I stock up when there’s an actually good deal.

Vegetables have gotten worse too. I have to double check everything at the super store near me. Even things like beets and potatoes spoil quickly like they’re very old stock. I have to feel and smell everything before I buy it.
