Ah, when people are sufficiently hungry, posters here included, they would eat anything and not be so choosy.
Think about it, this is just scrap meat that is salvaged by mechanical means. Surely, a disinfectant is used to ensure that bacteria get killed, but do we not also disinfect our chopping blocks or cutting boards at home with bleach? How do the meat departments in the back of grocery stores disinfect their trays, knives, bone saws, meat grinders, etc...?
And talk about the back of grocery stores, the butchers usually work behind closed doors, and bring out the cuts already shrink-wrapped and looking pretty. But one time, I was in a store when they kept the door open. Oh la la! The smell was powerful that I had to walk away quickly, lest I became a vegetarian.
Now that I have read a bit more about this subject, it is nowhere as repulsive as when I first heard the term.Pink slime is truly disgusting. Are you kidding me when saying it is already in supermarket ground beef now?
