Meet your Meat: Macro photographs of processed meats

[E20]

I heard some hot dogs are made out of (the fruit)apple cores and old Chinese newspapers.

No . My grandma used to use hardcore animal lard to fry everything. Never did she think about calories, fat grams, cholesterol or any other thing people now claim to be "bad". People die when they are going to die. Regardless of diet or lifestyle.

Um, no. I hope you were joking, because otherwise that's the dumbest thing you've ever said. Sure, occasionally someone who lives unhealthily will live a long time, but the demographic statistics clearly demonstrate behaviours that lead to higher death rates, such as high cholesterol intake and smoking. To say that death/illness rates are independent of diet or lifestyle is absolute BULL .

As for the photos, I don't find them disgusting at all. I mostly avoid processed meat, but not because of a few photos...

I honestly wish boutons would move to France so he can be happy with his miserable friends over there.


Hot dogs and other things are made of all parts of the animal!?!??!

NOOOO WE NEVER KNEW!!!!


Grow spines morons.....

I buy National Hebrew Winnie's. And they are good
And I don't care what they are made from. Everything
you eat turn to crap anyhow.

, it's just meat (...and other stuff too maybe, but I'd rather not think about that...). People should be happy we are using all parts of the animal. It has been confirmed now, photographically, that nothing goes to waste. haha

I mean, come on, everything is going to look disgusting if you look at it close enough. What, did the photographer actually expect to look at that stuff magnified and see something that looks MORE appetizing? It is food, plain and simple. And it is quick, cheap, easy, and delicious food at that.

Yeah, processed meat is not as good for you as, say, a steak or fresh deli slices or something, but most people cannot afford to eat steak or deli meat for every meal. I'm not suggesting people start a diet centered around bologna, salami, and prepackaged sausages, but , eating it once in a while is not going to kill you. It's like being a health extremist is the popular thing to do. People need to start being more realistic.

Um, no. I hope you were joking, because otherwise that's the dumbest thing you've ever said

Thank you Doctor
