Do you eat this sh--t??? Do you know???
From the website of Dr. Al Sears...
"The slimiest, nastiest slaughterhouse leftovers are put together by a company called Beef Products. Inc., (BPI) who then takes the dirty, feces-stained scraps and turns them into dirty, contaminated burger filler. How is that allowed? The government lets them use this filler because it’s treated with ammonia.The harsh chemical with the horrible smell that’s used for fertilizers and oven cleaners kills the harmful bacteria swimming around in the slimy meat soup. (It doesn’t get rid of it, of course. You’re still eating it, it’s just dead). What they do is pass the pink slime through a pipe where it is doused in ammonia gas. You would never know because they don’t have to mention this on the label. And you probably never think about it... until you buy some meat that stinks so bad you have to return it. Beef Products invented the process so they could find a way to use and make money from the absolute last and cheapest scraps of the animals. This meat is so cheap and popular that the National School Lunch Program forces schools to use it so they can shave a whole three cents off the cost of each burger fed to your kids. And it’s in up to 80% of the ground beef you can buy at restaurants or stores."

"McDonald’s, Burger King, and Cargill all said they’ll continue to use the meat, pointing to the fact that no cases of illness have been directly tied to BPI products so far."

I find the following page interesting, considering your article is some parts true, some parts inflated. How many people have died from ammoniated beef? I wonder what someone who lost a child due to E. Coli would say about this.

Anonymous, thank you for sharing a different viewpoint. I agree that the writing is melodramatic. I still don't relish the thought of eating beef that has been treated with ammonia, but that's me. -- Aggie
