Not to keep harping on Pink Slime [View all]

[Drahthaardogs]

However, I am watching Kerry Picket on Hayes talking about "Pink Slime"I am watching this stupid stupid woman is extolling the virtues of "pink slime" and how it has "always been there". She is expressing how now "precious" (said sarcastically) music and gym programs will have to be cut since schools will not use this product any longer. My grandfather was from Italia, a master sausage maker and butcher. He had a small feed lot and a killed his one beef and pigs on Tuesdays. "Pink slime" has never ever part of the ground beef making process. The hogs got the offal and scraps that he would not use for ground meat, he did not put it in a vat, spray it with lysol and toss it in the grinder.

This pink slime has nothing to do with meat production or even good agricultural practices. This is a by product of the huge large-scale agri-business. Our meat is NOT cheaper today than it was 30 years ago, it is NOT of better quality. Modern feed lots are disgusting. Modern sludge lagoons on hog operations are so hot with nitrates you cannot even use the water for fertilizer.

It is big business screwing the little man, selling him shit and calling it food. Go take a tour of an actual family farm, then go see a modern Monsato hog operation and tell me which pig you want to eat.

I KNOW better. I watched sides of beef prepared for the table for years. Pink Slime is a corporate load of horse shit that has no bearing on anything other than profit. Someone takes this lady for a ride in the country please.
