Summary
Beef mince prices have skyrocketed 14% in a year, hitting $24 a kilo—so high some families are flirting with vegetarianism. In response, a supermarket chain’s launched a beef-pork blend (“bork”), using equal parts New Zealand meat to slash costs. Though not new, similar blends like one from a Taranaki butcher (using Spanish pork) are gaining fans for their rich flavor. Chefs love it for its affordability and depth, especially when fried to caramelize. Nutritionists note similar protein levels across meats, stressing diet balance over protein comparisons.
