Lean finely textured beef in its finished form, from an ABC News report about the product. Lean finely textured beef (LFTB [1])—also called finely textured beef, [2] boneless lean beef trimmings (BLBT [3]), and colloquially known as pink slime—is a meat by-product used as a food additive to ground beef and beef-based processed meats, as a filler, or to reduce the overall fat content of ...
Ground beef in the United States may contain a meat-based product used as a food additive produced using technology known as advanced meat recovery systems or alternatively by using the slime system. Meat processing methods used by companies such as Beef Products, Inc. (BPI) and Cargill Meat Solutions produce lean, finely textured beef product ...
Anything labeled ground beef will have the highest fat content, typically between 25% and 30%, because it's ground from inexpensive cuts, like brisket or shank. Ground chuck is slightly less fatty ...
Steak tartare, a meat dish made from raw ground (minced) beef or horsemeat; Tartar sauce, a condiment primarily composed of mayonnaise and finely chopped capers; Cream of Tartar, the culinary name for potassium bitartrate, a dry, powdery, acidic byproduct of fermenting grapes into wine
Mechanically separated meat: pasztet Mechanically deboned meat: frozen chicken Mechanically separated meat (MSM), mechanically recovered/reclaimed meat (MRM), or mechanically deboned meat (MDM) is a paste-like meat product produced by forcing pureed or ground beef, pork, mutton, turkey or chicken under high pressure through a sieve or similar device to separate the bone from the edible meat ...
Bone meal provides phosphorus and calcium to plants, along with a largely inconsequential amount of nitrogen. [4] The N-P-K rating of bone meal is typically 3–15–0 [5] along with a calcium content of around 12% (18% CaO equiv.), [6] although it can vary quite a bit depending on the source from 1–13–0 to 3–22–0.
A screenshot from the electronic grading system showing USDA Choice, Yield Grade 2 beef. The left is the natural color view of the cut; the right is the instrument enhanced view that details the amount of marbling, size, and fat thickness. Optical sorting achieves non-destructive, 100 percent inspection in-line at full production volumes.
In the United States, USDA regulations stipulate that AMR machinery cannot grind, crush, or pulverize bones to remove edible meat tissue, and bones must emerge intact. The meat produced in this manner can contain no more than 150(±30) milligrams of calcium per 100 grams product, [5] as calcium in such high concentrations in the product would be indicative of bone being mixed with the meat.
