Nothing like a little ammonia to go with your hamburger.......
Sickening.....but nothing suprises me anymore.

As long as people worship the mighty dollar... this kind of crap will still happen. Some clown decided they can save $$ by substituting this garbage (literally)

And the gullible consumer takes it hook, line, and sinker

Yep, it's really gross. I don't eat fast food burgers anymore and the only hamburger meat I buy is at high end grocers because of this. It's amazing, you can taste the difference.

Gotta love buying from the farmers market, all natural, free range, you know the farmer, and it's from one cow and not a mix of 500 cows.

Americans did this on their own when they decided the big blue box was the only place in town to buy everything. Now they are slowly returning to the old days of hometown markets where you know the guy behind the counter. The hometown grocer was and still is the best place to spend your money even if it means paying a few dollars more. He needs your repeat business and word of mouth to keep his doors open.

I miss the days where every other grocery store was in local or state hands. Not a global corporation that spends most of their money in China.

And the person responsible for making "pink slime" legal in food was named to the suppliers Board Of Directors after stepping down. Go figure!

Why I like having a friend that has some cattle and I get one butchered and put in the freezer.
