This type of beef is suitable for making hamburgers.
鱼鱼
The prices are much better than Asian markets, the food is fresh, and it's packaged very carefully. I need to buy groceries from Wee every week, but there's no fresh food delivery service through Gofftown, so I can only order through a friend or acquaintance. It's a shame because it's so inconvenient! Hopefully, they will offer fresh food delivery through Gofftown in the future. I'll only buy from Wee and won't need to go to any other market anymore.

It's quite affordable and convenient, so I've repurchased it multiple times.

rukuichen1979
I made minced meat curry. It's a bit fatty, but delicious.
YKKPP
This is ground American Wagyu beef, not Japanese Wagyu. It's relatively more affordable. The beef is rich in fat, so you don't need to add extra oil when frying it; it releases plenty of butter. Adding a little to stir-fries doubles the flavor. I often use ground beef to cook pasta; it's especially fragrant. I also like to use ground beef for fried rice and pasta.

Buying every time, has very good quality!
