from what i've read, pink slime is not ground up inedible parts of the cow. it's muscle meat just like the larger parts of the cow we consider good to eat, but it requires more processing to extract the smaller bits from skin, bones, joints, and tendons, and is then treated with ammonia (and probably other things) to make sure it's completely safe to eat. maybe not tasty, but safe.
because of all of this processing, it ends up looking like pink slime.
i'm not really interested in eating the stuff, but if i was really hungry and the only thing i had was a 15% pink slime burger, i wouldn't turn it down.
my only concern is that i know that it's being put in a product so i have the choice to eat it or not.
greg, that's a neat experiment, i'd love to try to cook some up by itself just to see how it would turn out.
slime balls and spaghetti, slime loaf, swedish slime balls, slime-isbury steak, slime bourguignon, stir fry slime, etc...
