Last year, to help sell his house, Southampton butcher Simon Broadribb offered to give the buyer meat worth £20 every week for one year. It was stated that this could be either 40 burgers, or 96 sausages, or 140 rashers of bacon, or 30 lamb cutlets, or 35 portions of mince. Based on that offer, which is the most expensive?
