Pink Slime Manufacturer Files for Bankruptcy
FA Foods, a leading American processor of ground beef, has filed for bankruptcy, citing the wave of negative media coverage surrounding their so-called “pink slime” product.

The huge amount of media coverage that has recently been devoted to the Boneless Lean Beef Trimmings (BLBT), better known as “pink slime,” can be chalked up almost entirely to the attention of countless activists across the United States.

The USDA was a major purchaser of the pink slime product, recently purchasing some seven million pounds of the highly unappetizing product.

This pushed over 250,000 Americans to sign a petition online which demanded a complete stop to the use of pink slime in school food.

The USDA’s response was especially lackluster given the fact that even fast food chains who are infamous for using incredibly unhealthy products renounced the product.

i guess the whole "lets not refer to it as pink slime" campaign didnt pay off quick enough.
All morons hate it when you call them a moron.

People always think something's all true.

It's funny. All you have to do is say something nobody understands and they'll do practically anything you want them to.

Now, these peddlers of poison, and the like, will go further underground to hide their deeds. It would be easier to get into a NSA, CIA, or FBI facility than to go see the manufacturing of high fructose corn syrup (HFCS).
These people have more power than the government.

Ha! The main problem is you expect something different from the mainstream media. Just stop watching the bullshit! For the record, that pink slime shit is gross!

do you think they produced a good product? would you eat it? or feed it to your kids? i feel horrible for people losing their jobs but we cant continue using this stuff just so these people can stay employed.

i agree with you 100% about the MSM. however i think this falls on the USDA and FDA. these are in place to protect from consuming stuff like this. if they did their jobs maybe this company would have grown in a way that could succeed.

I am not so worried about those jobs being lost, it is probably for the greater good.

Yes. Yes it is...now my kids dont have to be forced to eat that SHIT....The inventor of pink slime is retired now, and over 80 years old. He grounds his own meat and strongly advises us to stay away from pink slime as it has been bastardized fro what he invented and is no longer ONLY for dogs and cats but for people now....GROSSS

Sorry for the dipshits that worked there, but the shit is unnatural, frankenstein bullshit food TYPE substance...

Pink slime is for losers who deserve the consequences of being a retard.
