Back in February, I posted an article regarding the First Time Home Owner’s Credit.

Is it true that some Restaurants are using “fake” chicken and steaks? Some people call it fake, because it is grounded up chicken or beef that has been reconstituted. Darker meats, especially in chicken, have higher Myoglobin which is excreted in muscles that are used more, such as legs and thighs in chicken.

The meat processors run the meat through a centrifuge which separates the Fat and Myoglobin from the meat. The remaining meat is whiter and then bloated with brine or some water and some fillers such as starches, cereals, or flours amongst other things.

They basically use them in places where the meat is less suspect and/or noticeable. (continue reading…)
