With summer in mind, online catering marketplace Caterwings has conducted a study revealing the cost of favorite BBQ meat items in over 50 countries worldwide. The study reveals that Switzerland has the highest meat prices, at 141.9% more expensive than the average cost worldwide, followed by Norway (63.7% more expensive) and Hong Kong (61% more expensive), while Ukraine has the least expensive meat prices, at 52.3% less expensive than the average cost, closely followed by Malaysia (50.3% less expensive).
To give perspective to the data, the affordability of meat in each country was calculated to reveal the relative number of hours a person on minimum wage must work to buy each type of meat. The findings confirmed that not only does the price of BBQ favorites vary massively from country to country, but there is also an enormous disparity in the quantity of meats consumed around the world.
