I am not seeing any post about the pink slime or carbon monoxide being added to meat. All FDA approved. Not for me. Really scary. Interested ? Google, lots of links. CF
Is there a website where I can find out if the store I buy from us it?I prefer to grind my own beef. If I buy it, it's either from Costco or Publix. I understand that neither of them use Pink Slime. I noticed a long time ago that something was going on with the ground beef....the taste and texture just weren't what they used to be.
As for those blown up packages of meat like you find in Wal-Mart that have been treated with Carbon Monoxide, they can keep those too.
I'll take my chances on maybe getting e.coli and/or salmonella as opposed to positively getting meat that has been treated with ammonia and/or carbon monoxide. There's no doubt in my mind that later on down the road there will be a study that comes out about how meat treated with ammonia and/or carbon monoxide causes cancer.
Thanks mama. My store isn't listed.
Gotgarlic, It's not carbon monoxide, yep it is, different from pink slime, meat is being treated with carbon monoxide, to keep it looking good for weeks. Meat being treated with ammonia or any chemical to me is not good. (my opinion)
Growing up in rural America, way back when. We ate what ever didn't eat us first. So offal parts aren't new to me.
I haven't a clue as to what Jamie Oliver has said. But I do know what is being said on the news channels. And it does not sound good to me. You want to eat it, go for it. I bet most of us don't. CF
I just got this in an e-Mail and I thought that it would add a chuckle.
