Finger-Licking Ugh

This is mechanically separated chicken.


If you've ever eaten a Chicken McNugget, or bought pre-fab chicken nuggets from the grocery store, then you've had some of this before.

It contains:
-All sorts of parts of the chicken people don't normally eat.
-Ammonia (to kill the massive amounts of bacteria).
-Artificial flavouring (hence the pink colour).

Next they'll add food colouring so it doesn't look pink anymore.

For the record, this is also available in beef, turkey, and pork versions.  Pre-fab burgers anyone?

Guys?  Meat shouldn't look like ice cream, guys. 

UPDATE:
Found this video on the topic:



Also this one, which is less catchy but has better visuals:

  1. You just really hate me enjoying food.

    Or what ever I like to pretend is food.

  2. Just think - it looks exactly like strawberry frozen yogurt!

    Only it tastes like meat! Mmm!
