ground turkey vs. lauras lean hamburger

Options
Whats your thoughts people? lauras lean is the closest i have found to organic without paying the extra for organic. If you check both labels there isnt that much difference.

    I looked at the Laura's website and it sounds like a good choice to me. No hormones or antibiotics and the cows live in pastures and graze.

    in what context? For me it depends on what I'm making. I refuse to use ground turkey in meatloaf anymore; it's just too dry by comparison. I will use ground turkey for burritos though.

    Turkey tastes nothing like beef. Ground bison, however, tastes almost exactly like beef and has WAY less calories, fat, and cholesterol. Plus, bison don't come from industrial feedlots!

    Where do you buy bison? I would like to try it.

    I would go with the Laura's lean beef, I have tried and tried to like ground turkey and don't like it fixed any way but you may like ground turkey it is not for everybody

    I also compared the two and chose laura's. I like the taste and the nutrition is good.
