Pink Slime! Yuck!

Oh, and I forgot!!! Put down the hot dogs!

If you want to learn about Mechanically Separated Meat, from an unbiased source, start here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechani...separated_meat

Make sure you go to all the citations for the claims made... Since you wont take it at face value (Which, you shouldn't).

Pink slime is not MSM according to your Snopes reference. I don't eat Hot Dogs. Remember what I said about packing plants? Hot Dogs are bad!

And, another source:

So, after you learn what it really is, maybe then, we can drop the hyperbole, and talk about the real issue: Why are consumers paying so much, for something as cheap as it is?

This Snopes atricle is proof of what I have been saying. Go read it again... LOL!

BLBT is the same meat you get from the cut. The only difference? The form. That's all. It comes from the bone, wherever it might be.

That is what the industry wants you to believe. Not what the industries whistleblower and 2 USDA inspectors are saying. Who do you want to believe? Those who stand to profit?

The floors are just as clean as any other spot in the plant. That's why they wear rubber boots in the processing area. But, they have been on the floor. As for knowing if something contains MSM or BLBT you can know: It's on the ingredients list as such.

It is not listed. In fact, the USDA does not require labeling. And then there is this quote to debunk the statement you made and I quoted:

Janet Riley, senior vice president of public affairs for the American Meat Institute recently made her case against labeling, telling ABC News, "What you are asking me to put on the label, its beef, it's on the label, it's a beef product, it's says beef so we are declaring ... it's beef," she said

In the end, the consumers will decide and your stance on this subject will remain....moot.

There is an old saying from the early days of computers that is true for food as well:

"Garbage in, Garbage out"

"Pink slime" is a term used for BLBT and MSM.

Me? I fucking love hot dogs.

What claim? That meat is meat?

Please, the only thing shown by "whistleblowers" is a picture of it... "ZOMFG!!! Would you eat this?!?!?!?!ELEVENTY11!"

I stand corrected on this. However, it doesn't change the fact that BLBT is beef. Fine, you want it called out? Whatever.

In the end, the consumers will decide and your stance on this subject will remain....moot.

Um, I am a consumer.

Yes Corey, you are a consumer and you are vastly out numbered on this one.

Allow me to help you with you love of Hot Dogs. Back in the late 60s and early 1970s the Farmland Foods hog plant was called Wilson's. My big brother worked there and he told me a story about how things went. At the end of each table was a bin that scraps went in. The workers would toss there cigarettes in that bin. The tobacco chewers would spit their "juice" and use tobacco in that bin. If somebody coughed up a lung, the flem would end up in that bin. The contents of that bin were frozen when it got full and sold to some company that made Hot Dogs. Farmland still has those bins and they may be cleaner now than what they were then, but Farmland makes their own hot dogs.

As for the Whisleblowers..... Follow the money. Who gains by telling you something that is untrue? Whistleblowers always take a beat down.

At least its not pink sock.

I dunno about that...

817 hot dogs consumed each second during peak (aka Spring and Summer) time of the year.

I wonder how long this ban would last once people found out they couldn't eat hot dogs?

Apparently, all that chit makes them fucking delicious. I'm sold!

Again, all I've seen so far were pictures, followed by "ZOMFG!!!! HOW CAN WE EAT THIS!!!ELEVENTY@!", then followed by tonnes of hyperbole, like,"ZOMFG!!!! THEY SOAK THIS STUFF IN AMMONIA!!!!!@#!!ELEVEN1", which that's patently untrue.

So, yeah, let's follow the money: Where did this story break first? That's right, on Day Time TV. Can you say,"RATINGS?"

If you think MSM and BLBT is cow shit, I don't know else to show you, other than the evidence at hand with discounts that. And the NYT article you linked only shows that the ammonia treatment doesn't perform as well as thought in removing E. Coli... Nothing about cow shit.
