Meat is already tracked to its origin. They can track a specific box to the farmer and supplier.

Anytime there would be a recall, they would include the lot number and manufacturer dates.

Source: I worked in meat packing and boutique butcher shops.

Edit: even things like ground beef from trimmings, we would write down every lot that went into it

Thanks for the correction. I think the issue here is that none of this information is public (like I can’t call the company and ask where lot 11956 came from), so it’s impossible to know as a consumer.
