Target: $3 peelies reported on Sutton & Dodge meat products

People have been finding $3 peelies on Sutton & Dodge meat products. You can get a lb of Top Serloin for approx $1.50 with the peelies. There was a lot of discussion about this meat last year because it is processed/packaged with nitrogen/chemicals that cause cancer fyi. Last year it was also a Target ip and this year it's a peelie so you can prob get more than 1 w/out any issues...

Sutton & Dodge was invented by Hormel just this year. Look at that quote by the VP of Hormel. He's practically admitting to false advertising!

This "Steakhouse Quality Aged Angus Beef" is exactly that... and then it's stuck with needles and injected with a saline solution equal to twelve percent of it's own weight. Injected with water and salt and flavorings and who knows what else. Then it's tumbled in a big vat much like clothes tumbling in a dryer. All to make the meat "tender".

What you end up with is a cut of meat that is unnaturally tender. What you also end up with is an 8 oz cut of beef that contains 26% of your daily sodium intake. And what Hormel ends up with is an extra $1.20 on every ten dollars worth of meat.

What ends up on your plate looks deflated and tiny as all of the water cooked out of it and as even more liquid continues to leak into your vegetables and all over the place.
