I don't see the problem. Lots and lots of food looks gross before its cooked. That doesn't bother me one bit. Now the living conditions of the animals before they are ground up, that bothers me.

I like chicken, but only if I can identify it by anatomical landmarks. That pink chicken paste is gross. I wouldn't even serve that mess to my possum.

That is seriously disgusting. I for one will never eat chicken patties or chicken nuggets again.

I love me a #6 at Wendy's. YUM!!!!! Good thing thats real chicken.

It's just chicken meat, ground up. They don't put the "whole chicken" into a blender, that's false. It's just the same as buying "ground beef" or "ground turkey" when you get down to it.

I have no problem eating ground chicken, in McNuggets or patties or whatever. It'd be a bit hypocritical of me to eat ground turkey or ground pork, or "god forbid" hotdogs... and whine about ground chicken.

I don't think that it's so much the "ground" idea I object to, as the "nasty bits" part. I don't have any big objections to "muscle tissue" in there. (I have no idea why that is supposed to be gross because that is the part you want to eat)

I'm OK with wasting a small amount of chicken. I don't want those mysterious ugly little bits that cling to the underside of a chicken back being mechanically separated and mixed in with my food. In this house, the possum gets those. I am not going to encroach upon what he has claimed as his own.

Never ceases to amaze me at how people freak out over the silliest of things.

Yeah and that's why you would never eat a hamburger, or anything that contains ground beef like, meat loaf, a marinara meat sauce, chili.

Apples and oranges.

I will eat ground chicken or ground turkey--the kind that comes ground, not in an all-inclusive and processed to hell paste.

I will not eat beef in a pasty mystery meat form. All I have to do is see "partially defatted beef fatty tissue" or "variety meats" somewhere on the ingredient list and it doesn't come home with me. Not even for the possum.

Didn't even phase me I'm eating chicken nuggets right now lol

It doesn't phase me or freak me out or any of that. There are things that I consider to be somewhat nasty and I don't eat those things.

BTW, I'll eat a pile of chicken gizzards in a heartbeat. But I kinda like to be able to pretty much identify what I'm eating. With raw ground beef or even raw ground turkey or chicken you can see in the package if the color is correct and if it's a regular grind and not a paste, you can see if there are off color bits mixed in.

To each his own.

Id stuff my face in that lol :rofl:

This is one thing I HATE about being a chef... The argument of processed foods that McDonalds uses towards what we see as "real food" Either way, it's a choice, and to be honest, I think it's disgusting, BUT you can always tell your kids they're eating liver and gizzards. :) Actually sweetbreads sounds good right now..lol

To this.. I'd rather just have a sautéed airline breast. Or if I'm in the mood some coq au vin... :D

Sweetbreads do sound kinda good...

So does a nice stuffed veal heart.

meh - doesn't bother me.

The picture looks a little like frozen yogurt actually.

Ooo..It does! Now I want frozen yogurt :| I should pick some up from wal-mart next time I need to go. 'cause they have these yummy popsicles that are frozen fruit things that are coconut.

If you accidentally licked it, thinking it was strawberry yogurt... that'd be a bit disgusting.

But meat is meat is meat. You can grind it fine, cook it whole, it's still parts of a dead creature that are pretty tasty.

And the ground beef you see in the store? Yeah, good luck "identifying" the bits. It's treated almost the same.

But, hey... anyone who doesn't want to eat it, it means more for me! Yay for picky eaters!

Tried sweetbreads, didn't care for them. Heart, kidney and liver... excellant. Pig ears? Not too bad. Pickled pig feet? Not on a bet.

Okay... on a SIZABLE bet... but I wouldn't be happy about it.

Looks okay to me.

...I love scrapple. That's ground up left over pig parts. So good.

This is funny like the field trip to the dairy in kindergarten when kids in my class didnt realize milk came from cows.....

It is funny to me that people are getting upset or grossed out over this, you easily grossed out people have you ever eaten hotdogs, pepperoni, salami, or chorizo? these are made primarily out of the less desirable stuff, I mean any authentic chorizo has lymph nodes as a primary ingredient lol and its magically delecious....

On another note, people are grossed out at "mechanically separated chicken" at this stage but are okay with spam?

I am unphased.... Why? *points to self* herbavore :D

Salami isn't even cooked.

All looks the same in the end... Just sayin'! :D

So what I got out of that was you don't want it if its ground up too much. Well ok then that makes total sense. Ground a little, tasty healthy beef replacement. Ground to a paste. Gross sign of just how bad the USA has gotten.

I would much rather feed my future children organic, locally raised chickens ground up into a paste and formed into dinosaur shapes. Than a whole chicken breast raised in an industrial farm.

I'll take the "industrial farm" chicken. Organic is a ridiculous label. Chickens eat feed, get big, get killed, come to store, go home with me, get eaten.

Some folks will spend ten times the price to get something "organic" or whatever. Kudos to them if they have the extra cash. 90% of the time, it's the same thing as the non-labeled stuff anyway.

I talked to my vet once and mentioned the "organic" labeling craze and he snorted and pointed out that cancer is all organic too. Made me snort my non-organic soda through my nose.
