Just got extra lean from Checkers.  When cooking it I decided to jumble it up first only to find the single layers on top is pink and fresh, he rest is brown. Not brownish-pink, plain brown.  Made me wonder, do they spray something on top to retain colour, do they fill the old mince first and sprinkle the fresh stuff on top to make it look nice pink, or is this how meat changes colour, first the inside, then the outside.


Anyone here familiar with retail?
