US poultry firm launches new ground products

Gold'n Plump Poultry has announced some new additions to its Recipe Ready Ground Chicken line of products with a leaner ground chicken.

A fresh meat option consists of 95% lean chicken packaged in a tray, while a 93% lean chub is available both fresh and frozen. Both packages contain one pound of meat.

Gold'n Plump already sells 90% lean ground chicken in fresh trays and chubs as well as frozen chubs. The ground chicken generally costs between US$2.99 and US$3.99 per one-pound package.

St. Cloud, Minnesota-based Gold'n Plump sells chicken products under the Gold'n Plump and Just Bare brand names to retail, deli and foodservice.
