Why does the statement “Contains Up To 10% Added Moisture” appear on other companys Roast Beef labels?
Some companies that process a lesser quality roast beef choose to extend the meat by adding water to it. The USDA requires that these labels declare the amount of added moisture that the roast beef retains. Dietz & Watson’s Roast Beef is minimally processed and therefore takes a natural shrink while cooking. In other words, when you purchase a Dietz & Watson Roast Beef you are taking home the finest roast beef with no added water.
