Ever heard of "meat glue"

I sure hope this isn't a re-post & it sure seems plausible.

There is a 30 sec. advert. preceding the clip. If this is happening in Aussie it is more than likely to be happening here & in the States.

Transglutaminases - In commercial food processing, transglutaminase is used to bond proteins together.
Examples of foods made using transglutaminase include imitation crabmeat, and fish balls.

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.

The point being, it is the so-called 'prime cuts' of meat being 'modified' & therein lies the big worry. It has pretty much always been a given, the 'mystery meats' (hot dogs, chicken nuggets, bologna etc.) were/are just that - rubbish.

Turkey(subway), roast beef(Arby's), chicken nuggets, etc. all contain "meat glue". Nothing new here.

True, the guy who bought our cottage (summer house) made his fortune marketing turkey roasts, in fact he renamed the place "Turkey Point".
Last time I checked a turkey, even though it's a big bird, didn't have a breast or leg that was big enough for a whole oven roast.
And I'm pretty sure there's no such animal as a turducken.

You could always buy Halal (muslim blessing) meat, no blood products can touch the meat. This meat glue would never be Halal as it has blood in it.

Or find a real butcher, not Costco, etc.

My "real butcher" is not that much more expensive. The steaks are exquisite. And the bacon is to die for - in fact I prfobably will.

Uhh, well hate to break it to you but...Carrageenan is acceptable and commonly used in poultry and beef. The Halal blessing is kind of a joke in that I have been to a few plants that were Halal certified and it is nothing more that a recorded blessing played on loop in the kill room....granted their are other things at play but it was amusing to me to hear this over the loud speaker.

Yes and up here Muslims are becoming very concerned, they've rose enough demand to get their own separate line at factories like Maple Leaf foods. They showed the line (on TV) and admitted they are doing "mass" blessings with permission.

Carrageenan may be acceptable, but Transglutaminase (in the video) would not be.

BTW it doesn't matter if you agree with this or not, it doesn't cost the regular person anything (unless they buy Halal), but the demand is there, it does employ extra people and is profitable for the company. Maple Leaf has stated that they will have to add another line to keep up with demand.

I have a couple of racks of ribs that will be this weekends tasty treat. Doubt that any glue was used in their production.

As for the halal stuff, hope that they mix in some pork product along the line. Like the meat-glue, doubt that they will notice it...
