Rubbish. Humans have been eating the whole animal for thousands of years - it is only very recently that money and marketing have made offal and the like unpalatable to the public eye. Properly prepared and cooked, this is no less healthy than any other meat (and probably more so than some meat products). The negativity appears to be based 100% on the visual appearance of the "pink slime".
People eat mouldy milk, bird embryos, fungus, raw fish and bloated bird livers, often treating them as delicacies, so it's hardly fair to bring our rational in to food choices.
We are talking mass production here. Like I said, you can eat that **** all you want, I just want to know when it's being served. Using Ammonia to me seems, "not properly prepared". does it to you?
And if that was the focus of the campaign, I'd be all for it. The attacks are much more aggressive though, hence schools banning food containing the substance from their canteens and companies going out of business. It's entirely the wrong apprach to the issue.
They fought the requirement to list the use of ammonia, they made thier own bed here. if the company wishes to survive, and I hope it does, it should do so under the requiment that people using thier product be notified.
Yes, but the key aspect of a witch hunt is that it has been predetermined there is a witch so someone is going to burn, guilty or not.
One would think we all would want to know what exactly our food contains, no?
