[QUOTE=Swilly;49640675]Why not just make fucking sausages out of the leftovers? Like we've been doing for centuries?[/QUOTE]
Because sausages don't sell for as much per kg
Also isn't this a really old video?
Thing is, if you're gluing smaller bits, why glue them if you can sell them as minced meat. The only usage for meat glue is deception.
[QUOTE=Laserbeams;49617661]I thought Americans hated properly cooked meat. Wouldn't having well done steaks only be like suicide for a restaurant over there?[/QUOTE]
Nobody in their right fucking mind orders a steak 'well done'.
[QUOTE=Sobotnik;49618896]I can understand the concern with false advertising leading to not preparing the meat correctly (not to mention you're being led on to buy something you think is something else), but I cannot see any problem with meat glue at all. It's safe, tastes the same, and is virtually identical otherwise to other meats.
I like it when they say shit like "your beef is held together with pigs blood", oh fuck off, no it isn't. It's an enzyme used to bind pieces of meat together. Saying that's a problem is like complaining about insulin being made from pig pancreases.[/QUOTE]
Even if it was held together with pigs blood, what's the problem? People eat blood pudding and blood sausage all the time, I quite like them on a roll. As long as it's safe to eat (which the majority of pigs and cows are) I don't see the problem.
Sensationalist bullshit like this designed to drum up a scare for more views should be illegal. The news should focus on being factual and unbiased.
