You have no idea how miserable the USDA had made my job lately, especially with their clear lack of coherent nomenclature. When the same thing can be called four different things depending on the region you live in, and then said region broadcasts/publishes recipes and whatnot calling for specific cuts, and then a Canadian gets hold of them because everything from the US gets fed up here to us in some form of a cable package/magazine subscription, I want to stab somebody.

Also, whoever down there thought pink slime was a good idea should be shot. Made my life miserable at work for a good three months.

And that's why i stray away from heavily processed meat and things of the like.
I guess you're a annoyed worker.
Seriously, I can never look at a chicken nugget or strip the same again. Using the parts of animals that no one would use to make meat.
It would explain it's bad taste

Pink slime is not always added specifically to processed beef items.
If a store receives course ground chubs, then LFTB could have been used as a filler product before it arrived at the store level and still legally be marketed as "fresh ground beef" without any mention of the LFTB additive, enough though that additive was treated with ammonia gas or citric acid.

Our ground beef sales plummeted after ABC broke that story, and Canada doesn't even allow the crap into the country.

I had a feeling that's who he was referring to. In which case... yeah, French Canadians are good for a laugh.

Almost as much as Newfies.

Don't make me repost my newf accent.

True.
Bet that's because they care about it's citizens health.
We just have to live with the bad choices while having 3 advocates pointing out how it's ruining American Society as a whole.
I'd rant on, but then I'd sound preachy.

Hey guys. Instead of zombies we have Spider Army's invading. IRL gears of war?

Just noticed this part as well. Depending on where you are getting your chicken nuggets/strips from, they are using chicken meat.

I don't really follow the logic of "using the parts of the animal that no one would use to make meat." Technically, if it's a muscle or tendon, it's meat. Nobody adds bones or anything to their processed meals. If you're referring to mechanically separated chicken/pork/beef, the "mechanically separated part" simply refers to using a machine to strip all of the meat from the bones, not the bones themselves. And even then, they have to market it as "mechanically separated," which you see all of the time on hot dogs and whatnot. McDonald's, for an example, uses all white meat for their nuggets/strips, not mechanically separated, so they never go through this process. Your economy brand, frozen nuggets and strips at the store... yeah, probably a good half of them contain mechanically separated chicken.

There was a nasty image a little while ago of some sort of weird, pink, ice cream looking thing that people were saying was what's used to make McDonald's nuggets. I have no idea what that pink goo was, but I know it wasn't what goes into their food.

The reason the chicken tastes bad is because they are all artificially flavoured. I have never had something artificially flavoured that tasted better than the natural thing.

Had a feeling the Pink Slime was a hoax.
Glad I did some research on it.
But I'm talking about some of the bone marrow.
Forgive my ignorance, just tell me they do not use it in Mechanically separated food.
I wouldn't want the food just for the fact I cannot prepare it like I want to.
It's artifical flavor always gave me a turnoff
