It's been a bad year for "lean finely textured beef," better known by the less-tasty moniker "pink slime."

This is rediculous. The stuff is the same thing that's in Bologna or hotdogs.
This was just a hit piece by ABC news against the beef industry and anyone who eats meat.
Stupid libtards!

1:53. You keep on eating that bologna and hot dogs and pink slime and we won't have to worry about your stupid comments anymore.

What so ridiculous about consumers wanting to know what they are eating 4:53?
It will still be available and those who choose can purchase ground beef cut with it.
There are some of us would like to know what our food is treated with and the fact that this has been hidden from us is what's alarming.

all processed meats are treated with ammonia along with a host of other processes and chemicals. hence the term processed meats! Know what you are buying and feeding your children. idiots!

If we didn't know they were selling it in the first place, how are we really going to know if and when they stop selling it?
