Is there "pink slime" in your hamburger? If you're eating at McDonald's the answer is, not anymore. "Pink slime" may sound like a strange name for a cross between ketchup and mayo, but, in fact, it's a moniker for a scary-sounding chemical process used to create burger filler from previously inedible meat parts.

According to Food Safety News, McDonald's, along with other fast food chains such as Burger King and Taco Bell, has finally decided to stop the use of the ammoniated beef burger additive that had been dubbed "pink slime" — essentially fatty beef trimmings, otherwise inedible, that have been treated with ammonium hydroxide to kill bacteria. This process ultimately allows the beef trimmings to be turned into hamburger filler

All fast food meat is made from a process called mrm or mechnically recovered meat. So when a cow carcass is killed the prime cuts all are stripped down by a machine. Then all the scrag ends are gathered up and mashedintoa mincer and then it makes burgers. Add a SHIT load of salt and then freeze until required. Hence they can say the meat comes from 100% pure beef.

And as a previous poster said... Fuck me its tasty!!!

The photo above has been extensively passed around recently, and for good reason: it's a peek into the rarely-seen world of mechanically separated meat.
