Hearty ground beef meat is often perceived as one of the least healthy sources of protein because of its fat content, but Great O is aiming to reposition this red meat as a great source of heart-healthy Omega-3 fatty acids.
Great O's meat comes from cows that have been fed flaxseed or algae supplements, meaning that consumers will be able to enjoy the benefits of about 60 milligrams of Omega-3s with each four-ounce serving. This unique feature of the meat is emphasized with a packaging that shows the "90% lean" and "10% fat" content of the all-natural product.
Beyond its ground beef products, Great O also has bacon, eggs, milk and goat cheese that have been enriched with Omega-3 fatty acids.
