paulus 26 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Say hello to..........mechanically seperated chicken. It's what all fast-food chicken itemsare made of. It's chicken nuggets, patties, and the meat in fajitas...In addition the processed frozen chicken in stores is made from this..Basiclly the entire chicken is smashed and pressed through a sieve...bones, eyes, feet, guts and all. It comes out lookinglike this... There is more, because it's crawling with bacteria, itwill be washed with ammonia, and soaked in it.. Then because it tastegross it is reflavored artificially. Finally since it is weirdly coloredlike 'Pepto Bismol' pink, it is dyed with artificial color.. This iswhat people eat and feed to their children... Enjoy !!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The one 8,463 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Chicken must be dirt cheap , any time we go to a chinky buffet all the dishes are of chicken origin so why they have to power wash the carcasses the get the remains off is a mystery Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JohnGalway 1,043 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Read "Not on the label", by Felicity Lawrence. But, only if you're on a diet and struggling. Been a long time since I read it so I won't say I agree with it all as I can't remember. I do remember it having a profound effect on my thinking in relation to food.

LaraCroft 863 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 I think people are unrealistic about food these days. If they knew how much work went into producing meat of any sort in the UK, they would understand why not only decent meat cuts are the price they are, but why it is daft to expect there to be anything like decent quality meat in a pack of 8 burgers costing 99p It sounds like someone in the Findus factory has made a huge profit using low priced french horse meat instead of beef. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nik_B 3,790 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Watch the documentary Food Inc Now there's an eye opener...admittedly it's about the US food market but if the powers that be had their way they'd be doing it over here as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Completely true. If you look back into the past, people spent a lot bigger % of their "disposable income" on food. Now, it's preferable to spend a lot more of that DI on flat screen TV's, holidays etc. This is a consumer driven issue. People do not inform themselves of what's in what they're eating, or what's not in what they're eating. I'm as guilty of it as anyone else. There are of course people in unenviable financial positions where food can only be cheap, as they don't have the money to buy what I would call "proper food". The bad thing is it'll be them who're the main players who will benefit from such crises as the food mis labelling beef/horsemeat issue. Supermarkets will dump suppliers. Suppliers/processors will fire the odd person and blame someone else. In 6 months time everything will be back to normal. People will still be flocking to Supermarkets. In the mean time, the price of beef, and likely given the comments I've read, other meats, will have fallen for the farmer. Dishonest and overly processed food is plain bad news for everyone.
