The beef and pork industries are renaming 350 cuts of meat. What do these new meat monikers make us think of?
| Orawan Gardner
With the USDA’s blessing, the pork and beef industries are renaming more than 350 different cuts. Here’s what the new meat industry terms mean vs. what I think of when I hear them:
1. Boston Roast (formerly pork butt)

2. Denver Steak (formerly beef-under-blade-boneless-steak)

3. Porterhouse Chops, Ribeye Chops, and New York Chops (formerly pork chops)

TINA.org urges the FTC to adopt a fee disclosure rule for the online food delivery market.
And TINA.org is all for it.
