Lean Ground Beef Price in Saudi Arabia

Food prices in Saudi Arabia are generally cheaper than in the USA, especially bread and fresh produce.  This label shows the cost of .770 kilos of Brazilian Lean Ground Beef at 26.95 Saudi Riyals per kilo, making the cost of this package of ground beef 20.75 SR.  Converting that into pounds and US dollars, this package weighs 1.70 pounds at $7.19 per kilo (equaling $3.24 per pound), making the total cost of this package of ground beef $5.53 US.

How does that compare to your area of the world?

It seems quite expensive but my wife could tell you better for a comparison!
Hope you're doing well, Susie of Arabia!

Wow, can I come down for a shopping spree at the supermarket??
That is about half the price of ground meat here.
