They did didn't they one way to get your own company out there.

I had another look at that video may be TV trickery the old switch a Rooney may have come in to play.

I wonder who comes up with the rubbish they show?

Im guessing one day one of their writers will realise they have no dunny paper in the toilet and suddenly........."Tonights Headlines, Paper industry doing the public out of basic items".

They are not "News" shows, just people handing out dodgy information to get ratings.

Geez.. TodayTonight are slow on the uptake. As this 'Meat Glue' has been around at least 14-15 years that I know of. The first I learnt of it was back in 1996-97, when a dry goods sales rep came around to a Butcher Shop I worked in and was doing the hard sell, trying to convince my boss and others (at the time) how good it was. But as with most Retail Butcheries within my area, they took no interest in it whatsoever.

So I'd be reasonably safe to say that if you shopped at smaller Retail Butchers Shops, and most leading Supermarkets (Coles, Woolies, etc..). They'd tend to shy away from these products/practices as most do care about their customers. It's the larger mobs like Wholesale Butcheries and/or Restaurants that work on smaller profit margins and/or care less about regularly returning customers, that would be more inclined to use it. It'd be those outlets that'd I'd be more concerned about.

Also, there's was that much mis-information in that TT report. That I wouldn't dare to begin trying to correct it. As It'd consist of a multiple page essay by the time it was sorted. As others have said, it'd be best to sum the TT report up as BS. Because it's no different than the typical ill informed **** that gets regurgitated to us by TT and ACA, on a daily basis.

CelticAngel, I dunno if you're serious or not. But a beef cut (eye fillet, most often used) with bacon wrapped around it. Is known as a 'Filet Mignon'. :)

as someone who's played with Transglutamase (meat glue) - trust me, it's very easy to spot 2 cuts put together.... You'd be a mug to miss it...

Rather like the mugs who are fooled into watching today tonight...

Probably the biggest health concern with the story was the fact that they didn't have hats or hairnets on, as is required by law. :wink:

Even the guy's company is "Natural" not certified organic. $5 says there is sulphur-dioxide in his shop.

If we weren't supposed to eat animals they wouldn't be made of meat!
