About Breast (meat cut)
Breast is a meat cut taken from the breast area of an animal. The animal is not specified, so the term may refer to different meats, with corresponding variation in appearance, structure, flavour, and fat content.
It may be sold bone-in or boneless, whole or portioned, and may be raw or prepared. The cut is used in a range of cooked foods, but the catalogue name alone does not support a particular animal, cooking method, or product formulation.
