    The worst parts of the animal that can’t be used in other meat products

    You say that like actually using all parts of the animal you’ve killed is a bad thing

      You say that like grinding up and selling it as a meat-adjacent is the only possible use of animal remains.

        You are aware that many cultures eat every single part (that is edible/digestible) of the animal they kill, right?

        Tons of people eat eyes, brains, tails, feet, etc…

          In fairness, it’s not really the same

          Think more like a slurry of connective tissue, bits of fat, and scraps of meat pressure washed off the bone and swept into a drain. The legally allowable quantities of cleaning chemicals and feces are also pretty concerning…

          I’m happy to eat sausage, even blood sausage, despite knowing what it is and how it’s made… but hotdogs are gross in a unique and unnatural way
