Take me today, I have lived too long.

 

That was very unfair from the media. The so-called pink slime has been used extensively in the food industry for decades, and suddenly some reporter found a way of making news out of it...

I mean, even FDA standards call for a maximum allowable amount of worm and insect protein in frozen fruit juices and concentrates... where's the outrage?

There was nothing unfair about it. Pink Slime is not a term developed by ABC. Read the whole story. McDonalds dropped them because of the fact customers were getting sick so the pink slime manufacturer said the solution was to cut back on the pink slime in the beef mixture.

The manufacturer. Calls the slime a meat paste in their patent.

The hierarchy of meat and lobbying the USDA.
===========

Butswinkas began by telling the jurors, "If any of you have children, you know there are two sides to a story. This case is no different. ... The secret ingredient in [BPI's] product was secrecy."

Taking a Sharpie, the attorney then drew on a board for jurors what he called the "Hamburger Hierarchy," a list that had ground beef at the top, hamburgers below, beef patties below that, beef patty mix then next, followed by weird-sounding terms like "partially deflated chopped beef" and "partially defatted fatty beef tissue."

Butswinkas said the true story from a regulatory standpoint was how BPI took its product from the bottom of the hierarchy to nearly the top without anyone knowing it. The attorney then recounted the years-long process where the USDA was bombarded with lobbying letters and how Joann Smith, the former undersecretary of agriculture at the time, would go on to work for BPI's main supplier.

Gross.

 

This is something I didn't know. Tortillas are preferred at the space station!

Again it goes back to not remembering history. Upton Sinclair's "the Jungle" exposed stuff like this ~100 years ago. and it took the meat industry that long to find ways to bring back the 'all things but the moo' philosophy. Who knows what else is hiding out there.

Very interesting:

He first published the novel in serial form in 1905 in the Socialist newspaper Appeal to Reason

I wonder if the book had an impact of sorts later on during the McCarthy era...

Upton said it best - it took a few monites to find this one - but my Googler.eventually got it. I think it was an answer on a highschool test...

"It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it."

Now you went and did it. You'll wake joey up with that line. By the way where has he been?

A Charlotte family is getting national media coverage for throwing an elaborate quinceañera party for their beloved cat, Luna, who just turned 15.

Quinceañeras are Latino coming-of-age parties that mark a girl’s transition into womanhood when she turns 15 years.

Luna wore a frilly pink dress to the affair and she got a custom-baked cake. Guests even sang to her, though video shows she spent at least part of the party under the table.
