Beef Mince. Get into it

In the 2009 Beef mince campaign, Laurie Lawrence, ‘National Coach of Australia’, was on TV encouraging all Australians to “raise the bar and break new ground and do more with beef mince” by going into their local retailer to pick up the latest edition of Entice magazine.

Sure we love Spaghetti Bolognese, but the time has come to remind consumers of other delicious meals that can be made with Beef mince.  Research has shown only 2% of consumers cook mince dishes such as meatloaf and lasagne regularly compared to 31% indicating they cook Spaghetti Bolognese regularly*.
