Ex is apparently setting it up. But what's the difference, condoms are contraception. You mean you've never heard of women carrying condoms?

So it turns out that the government really doesn't care if children eat healthy lunches.. . well at least lunches the government serves. Here's a new one for you to digest... Pink Slime .

‘Pink slime’ in school lunches: Government is buying 7 million pounds worth - BlogPost - The Washington Post

And to think they take a turkey sandwich away from a kid for this .

You seem to be digging pretty low looking for news tom, nothing comment worthy happening over your way? Surely rick or mitt have said something worth knowing if not hasn't newt put his foot in his mouth lately

Not digging at all . This is grotesque and completely against the rhetoric coming out of the administration... especially the First Lady .

Myth: Ordinary Household Ammonia is Used to Make Some Hamburgers | Meat MythCrushers

I call your opinion, and raise you a FACT.

And of course there is no trace of ammonium hydroxide in the meat after processing... and you can verify that rendered scraps of sinue and non-muscle meat and waste products is not mixed into this concoction that they are feeding kids .BPI makes the product from grinding connective tissue and meat scraps that at one time might have gone for dog food or been discarded.To tell you the truth I don't even feed stuff like this to my dogs . Unbelievable!! Even Micky Ds won't use it!!

I can't believe the hypocrisy here . They are cutting healthy food with byproducts and you call it acceptable . If the Bush Adm had done this we wouldn't have heard the end of it.

And just so we are clear about what we are talking about... this is what is being mixed in the healthy food choices in the school cafeteria .

That image is from a documentary that is almost 10 years old.

The news isn't that garbage meat is being processed this way. I've know about this for a long time and it's usage in pet food. The news is that the USDA approved the addition of this garbage filler into the healthy school lunch program.

Nope. They don't use that process any more for human food. That happened very shortly after the movie was released in 2008.

And yet the USDA approved the introduction of pink slime into the school lunch program.

Absolutely not. I've read the articles and in none of them do they refer to that poultry concoction being added to the school lunch programs. It's a manufactured hysteria, look at Tal's link for facts.

I don't need to look at tal's link... there are a score of links from major news outlets saying that the USDA is permitting the purchase of 7million pounds of food that contains up to 15 % of this concoction for the school lunch program. Poultry ? It's beef by-product we are talking about.

You would think by NK's reaction that this was a Fox News story and not that bastion of liberalism WaPo. I'm really not believing my eyes that tal and NK are justifying this for children's 'healthy' lunches.

I think it's more that NK... wait, how would he put it? He's just attacking anything a conservative says. Over and over again.
