Bye Bye "Pink Slime" (satirical opinion)
by Hesh Goldstein
(NaturalNews) The company, Beef Products, Inc., that created "pink slime", if you'll pardon the expression, beef, stopped producing it because of enormous protests by the public.
For those of you not aware of "pink slime", it is a lower cost ingredient made from fatty bits of meat scraped up from the slaughterhouse floor. This "quality" product is then heated with a flame-thrower and spun on a merry-go-round to remove most of the fat. That is the difficult part because all that is left on a slaughterhouse floor is fat and parts that are totally unfit for human consumption.
Then this "lean" mix is compressed into clumps to be added as filler in ground beef. Yummy! Then, as if it's not bad enough, ammonium hydroxide gas is injected to kill bacteria and humans. This results in lean, safe beef that is mostly fed to elementary school kids to make them brain dead so they have no chance of getting into collage since the collages are so over-crowed anyway.
The Director of Food Quality (you've got to be kidding) at Beef Products, Inc., said that the public outcry was bad for business. He said that the product had been used for years and had been accepted in the industry as "lean finely textured beef".
Even though critics called the "pink slime" an unappetizing example of industrialized food production, Beef Products Inc's Director of Food Quality says that the federal regulators (which have been brain dead for years) have asserted that this "quality" product meets food safety standards. I assume that this is a clear realization that the public has no idea of the rigorous studies and testing the federal regulators must go through to call that which is unfit for cockroaches and rats to consume, safe.
The company, while suspending operations and laying off 200 employees, is in the process of "developing a strategy for rebuilding business and addressing misconceptions about the beef the company makes".
In other words, "how can we come up with way to continue to deceive the public and keep them in the dark about the slaughterhouse waste we use and euphemistically call food"?
Mary Meathead, a spokesperson for the company said, "We feel like when people can start to understand the truth and reality, then our business will come back. It's 100% beef". Riiiiiiight!
The company took out a full-page ad in the Wall Street Journal (even the Enquirer wouldn't take their ad) defending its product. It also launched a new website, www.eatourproductanddie.com to help dispel the myths about "pink slime".
Heaven help us!
About the author:
I have been doing a weekly radio show in Honolulu since 1981 called "Health Talk". In 2007 I was "forced" to get a Masters degree in Nutrition because of all the doctors that would call in asking for my credentials. They do not call in anymore. Going to www.healthtalkhawaii.com enables you, among other things, to listen to the shows. I am an activist. In addition to espousing an organic vegan diet for optimum health, I am strongly opposed to GMOs, vaccines, processed foods, MSG, aspartame, fluoridation and everything else that the pimps (Big Pharma, Monsanto and the large food companies) and the hookers (the doctors, the government agencies, the public health officials, and the mainstream media) thrust upon us, the tricks.
After being vaccinated with the DTP vaccine as a child I developed asthma. After taking the organic sulfur crystals (they are harvested from the pine trees in Louisiana) in November of 2008 for 10 days my asthma reversed and has not come back over 4 years later, 18 cases, so far, of autism have been reversed, as has cancer, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, osteoarthritis, joint pain, astigmatism, gum disease, increased sexual activity, heavy metal and radiation elimination, parasite elimination, free radicals elimination, faster athletic recovery time, increased blood circulation, reduced inflammation, resistance to getting the flu, reduction of wrinkles, allergy reduction, reduced PMS and monthly period pain, nausea, migraines and so much more. And it's only possible because of the oxygen it releases that floods the cells of the body. The sulfur, as proven by the University of Southampton in England, enables the body to produce vitamin B12 and the essential amino acids. You can find out more about this incredible nutrient also on my website - www.healthtalkhawaii.com -.
