First, news events (posting ham bones)
To tell the truth, buying "patch-wrapped ham" is really a bad thing.
However, whenever a merchant writes "bacon bones" on the outer packaging and clearly tells consumers that this is a bone, not a large piece of meat, we will not feel this is "wonderful" and we will not feel indignant.
Just after reading this news, the relevant personnel explained that ham bones need to be attached with meat to prevent the bones from puncturing the bag during vacuum packaging. In this way, it is really understandable that bones stick to meat. If our consumers knew in advance that there was such a big bone in it, they might consider buying it again.
I'm not a ham lover. Although I know that ham bone stew and seasoning are great, people buy ham for different purposes. Many of us buy ham just to eat meat. Packaging bones into meat is completely invisible from the outside, which will make those of us who don't know the inside story feel cheated. Buying this kind of bacon is like eating boiled chicken in the canteen. As a result, all the uncles in the canteen called me a chicken rack. It's all bones. What to eat?
Second, the common synthetic meat
Although bacon is not strictly synthetic meat, we really felt cheated when we bought such meat before we knew the truth. Let's talk about several kinds of synthetic meat that are common in our lives. They are three musketeers in hot pot (meatballs, crab roe, beef and mutton rolls (part)), cheap steak, ham sausage, chicken fillet and chicken chops.
Three Musketeers of Hot Pot: Eat hot pot or mala Tang. If you don't order meatballs, crab roe and beef and mutton rolls, there is basically nothing to eat. If you have bought meatballs in the vegetable market or online, you will know how low the unit price of meatballs in restaurants is. I'm not a small eater, but if I buy meatballs for ten dollars, I can eat myself full. Crab fillet is similar to meatball. They are very cheap, because there is meat in them, but the main ingredient is starch, and essence is added.
Moreover, some beef balls are probably made of minced beef and sheep, and some are even cheaper meat, such as duck. Since knowing this fact, when I eat starch balls, my mood will be a little complicated and I can't show off beef and mutton rolls.
Cheap steak and some beef and mutton rolls are also "the same" It may be processed with minced meat or fake duck meat. Ducks probably never thought that they could become "cows" one day.
Needless to say, starch is written on the ingredient list of most ham sausages. Some ham sausages are not installed, and the outer packaging directly says "I am a starch sausage". Even if some canteens sell ham sausages as meat dishes, they can only be regarded as synthetic meat at most, not even meat (pure starch sausages).
I used to think that "chicken fillet" and "chicken chops" were chicken breasts, but later I learned that they were also synthetic. Don't say that in those days, it was still my dream to produce a large piece of chicken chops. The meat is tender and big. I've always wondered why a chicken can grow such a big piece of chicken breast. Synthetic meat answered my doubts. Although a piece of meat can't become that big, adding meat glue can make many pieces of meat become a big piece of meat.
Third, the identification method of synthetic meat
Suddenly found that there are quite a lot of synthetic meat in our life. Although there are many, synthetic meat is not bad meat, nor is it all inedible meat. As long as the synthetic meat is good, it doesn't hurt to eat some synthetic meat. Of course, if possible, it would be better to eat raw meat or whole meat. Here are several ways to distinguish artificial meat:
1. Packaging
(1) Look at the package cover. It says "XX flavor". Stop looking. It must be artificial meat.
(2) Look at the implementation standard number (generally on the back). Generally, the meat starting with "SB" is synthetic meat (for example, SB/T 10635), while the meat starting with "GB" is original cut meat. You can remember the first letter of the execution standard number of synthetic meat according to the homonym.
(3) Look at the ingredients list. The original cut meat will be very clean, only meat; Whole-cut meat will also be cleaner, with a little additive besides meat; There are many other food additives in the ingredient list of artificial meat.
2. No packaging
(1) Look at the color and texture. The color and texture of the synthetic meat will be different from the original cut meat. If you think it looks unnatural, it may be synthetic meat. (It's easier to judge if you eat too much raw meat)
(2) Tear by hand. If white meat and red meat are connected and will not be separated as soon as they are torn, then the meat is cut raw or whole. Red meat and white meat of synthetic meat can be easily separated.
