Stater Bros Hamburgers

[justkeepswimming]

My local grocery Stater Bros. has some hamburger patties in their meat department that are pre-shaped and seasoned

They have jalapeno ones (OMG SOOO GOOD), Itatian ones with I think garlic and some other spice, Cheese ones (with grated cheese mixed in)

So I have a few in my freezer of the jalapeno ones. My question is Does anyone know if they put any illegal stuff in them. I asked the butcher and she said no - just the jalopenos, but the look on her face kinda made me think she wasnt for sure.

There was no info on the website. And I suppose I could just not eat them since I dont know for sure, but thought I would see if any one on here knows about them. I never put any "fillers" in my burgers, but I heard some places do? Im paranoid about every little ingredient.

Any help appreciated.

In the absence of any packet label info I would suggest contacting their headquarters office and asking for the nutrition info.
I have always found companies happy to give me details even if I have to wait a few days for the right person to get back to me.

Re: Stater Bros Hamburgers

our grocery stores are required to put an ingredient list on stuff like that. DOes yours have an ingredients list?

Call and ask to speak to the meat dept. manager. Tell them you need to know the ingredients in the burgers for health purposes. They should be happy to oblige

I stopped today on my way out of Wally World to pick up some bugers for lunch. They were doing it for a fund raiser. 2 for hubby and one for me that I was going to have with a salad. They looked really plump and yummy, I took one bite and it was so sweet it was like cake to me!! I ex-nayed the burger immediatly, I was so proud of myself. before I would have mowed though it in a heartbeat!!

I have no idea why they feel the need to put suger and fillers in meat for heavens sake!! But be careful...

Re: Stater Bros Hamburgers

FYI for anyone interested: I got a list of ingredients.

Starch, sugar, flour... etc etc... So needless to say, they are not safe.

I just make my own now.

I looked up a couple of my local fast food restaurants menus and was shocked to see how many of them put fillers in the burgers.

I think IN & Out is one of the only safe ones with their 100% all beef patties. ANd boy are they yummy! Dont know why the other places have to put all the other stuff in theirs.

So be careful everyone.

MMMMMMM, In & Out Burgers. And for anyone not aware, You can ask them for a protien wrap and they will make the burger and put it in a lettuce wrap, no bun. They actually have a key on the cash register for it! They will also sell the hamburger patties by themselves (for your dog? <lol>)
