First, I had to take the LFBT (pink slime) out of my Angus burger, now "they" are after my MEAT GLUE. All this erroneous food press is leaving a really bad taste in my wallet.
Food procurement experts and every foodie reading this blog will know about that powdery substance "transglutaminase" that binds the smaller cuts of protein together. You know, a structured and formed patty served at every public school and institution in the U.S.A. The foodservice community is not fooled into thinking these products are solid muscle prime cuts! And, depending on your level of foodservice (QSR, School Feeding, Cafeteria) these products meet both nutritional and menu food cost requirements.
You just watch, the food police will say these fabricated products are cheap scraps of beef (or chicken) produced by an industry trying to fool the public, or they will label "meat glue" as just another food trick like professional chefs substituting chicken for veal in the cutlets.
To these non-gassed bunch of bananas in the press, I say, "Balderdash"!
To Higher Profits!
