Sept 30, 2010: Mystery Meat
 
Ahh mystery meat, the magical ingredient staple in school cafeterias and cheap diners.
What's it taste like?
The cafeteria ladies, and greasy spoon chefs, reply, "Anything you want, kid, name it".
But what is it, what's it made from?
This batch, chicken.

Say hello to mechanically separated chicken.
It’s what all fast-food chicken is made from—things like chicken nuggets and patties.
Also, the processed frozen chicken in the stores is made from it.

Basically, the entire chicken is smashed and pressed through a sieve—bones, eyes, guts, and all. it comes out looking like this.

There’s more: because it’s crawling with bacteria, it will be washed with ammonia, soaked in it, actually.
Then, because it tastes gross, it will be reflavored artificially.
Then, because it is weirdly pink, it will be dyed with artificial color.
Yum yum. :yum:

Oh God, no more chicken nuggets for me...ever. That's disgusting.

:shock:

No wonder I prefer to buy whole chicken for cooking...
...and I almost never buy processed meat.

My mum didn't put ammonia through it, just her finger nails. :D

That's more mechanically joined than mechanically separated, though......

I'm starting to conjour up images of Sweeney Todd. Uuuuggghhh.

My parents swore there was a euphemism/codename for the human flesh in the pies, but I can't remember it -I'm thinking "Albanian Lamb"? But when i google Sweeney Todd, I can't find anything and googling albanian lamb leads to recipes. Anyway, whenever we asked what sort of meat was in something, that's what they'd say. Perhaps it really was Albanian lamb?

Q: What cuts of the animal are in that meat?
A: Whatever could squeeze through the little holes of the sieve.
