BTW, I'm pretty sure a whole lot of the creators of this "miracle food" use lots of parts that they don't want to advertise. I think the whole nugget thing was a way to use more, less desirable chicken parts.

With nuggets you are probably less likely to get Salmonella poisoning, at least they've been already cooked, versus bringing a Foster Farm's chicken into your kitchen, cutting it up on your wood cutting board, wiping down the board and the counter with a sponge and then using the same cutting board, counter and sponge to cut up your salad fixings.

Uh, Okay, you mean like hot dogs. Not sure how random 100 samples would be from the same manufacturer if they prep a slurry of the product from a large industrial mixing tank, inject it into a form, then cook it.

Fascinating video. I haven't been in a meat processing plant for decades. I noticed some workers have respiratory protection on, some didn't in different stages of processing. Everyone in some areas had masks on. I wonder if that is to protect the workers from the animal being processed, or the other way around. I suspect its both.

I would hope everyone here understands that when animals are slaughtered, at least in the USA, everything is used for something, be it food or something else.

How about Hebrew National versus say some Mexican hot dog factory? I said different manufacturer's. I have no idea if McDonald's, KFC and Carl's Jr. use the same vendors as say those that you buy at the supermarket.
