Cross contamination of raw meats? I'd contact corporate and notify them before someone gets killed.

You know, it looks like it could actually be a pork steak in there (Pork butt cut into steaks)

Pork steaks are pretty popular in my area, not sure about where you are at though.

Looks like pork steak, darker red color than typical pork loin chop

That’s incorrect you can look it up the government department of agriculture and many other government websites state raw meats can’t be with anything you don’t cook but fine with other raw meats as long as you cook them

To me it looks like a pork center-cut rib chop and a pork loin chop. Rib chops (presumably the bottom piece) are usually darker in color than the standard loin chop (the top piece behind the label). When I package the pork chops I cut, I always have the rib chops started at the bottom, becauee they are usually the bigger of the cuts. Then I will place in a layer, the sirloin and loin chops to complete the package (usually with 6 chops in one value pack). Which what appears to be done here too.

That’s a pork steak. Pork is actually supposed to be that red color not the pale stuff we see. Usually the higher quality pork like that goes to Asia because they pay for it and we don’t know the difference

That's a pork rib chop. Essentially the prime rib steak of pork chops. Darker color than the center chop (comparable to a t-bone for beef) that is on the right.

Not Giant's best looking pack of pork chops. I'm Joe, the mod over at /r/AskAButcher. Giant, as well as all the other Ahold subsidiaries use centralized meatcutting to fill their cases. Quality control can be questionable in my experience.

If this actually does happen in the future, it will be problematic because the steak would then have to be cooked to 165 since it is soaking in pork juices. It would kinda render the steak useless. That would be some dry steak.
