Anyone know why Meat smelled like off Mielie Pap

[DIPSLICK]

 

 

But how do they get that right with solid chunks of meat?

Sausages I can understand, but not sure about meat.

Also GLENBUTEROL STERIODS, bulk them up, change taste

mix it in with a brine solution and soak the meat. Can add up to 25% to the weight at minimal cost.

definately.

 

Havana in durbs has a grass vs grain steak.

 

Two steaks from the same farm, same breed.

 

One cow grass fed. The other grain.

 

HUGE difference in smell and taste .

 

Grass fed beef has yellow fat, grain fed has white solid fat.

I prefer the grass steak...its a bit sweeter.

Yip many ways, you need to know where your meat comes from(old school butcher)

But I suppose even those these days,, luckily we not huge meat eaters

Fark steaks! Some of the info is shocking. Ignorance was bliss

 

And this probably filters down the milk produced by the cows, the cream, butter and cheeses made from the milk.

Looks like I need to explore organic produce.

Coincidentally been to a dietitian recently and he recommended the Bryanston Organic Market to me, so will have to explore it some more.

 

The guys over at the LCHF forum also had some good info on grass-fed butter (Kerrygold) being healthier than the grain?fed variety.

I remember seeing pictures in history books of dairy farmers in old communist East Germany feeding the cattle with rolls from the local bakery due to the screwed up subsidy system. Would have been interesting to know how those cattle's milk/meat compared to grain-fed or grass-fed.

 

Whether its was Clenbutorol or Mielie Pap Filler, it smelled k@k and ruined my soup.

I returned the packet to a PnP yesterday (minus the piece that landed into my soup), but I doubt I'll hear from them about what was wrong with the meat.

Where in Gauteng can one get grass-fed beef?

Because, if those guys have grass-fed beef, they probably also have grass-fed milk, cream, butter and cheeses.

Pity!

 

In case anyone was wondering about the extenders and fillers Morewoodman mentioned, here is an intersting article:

http://www.fao.org/docrep/010/ai407e/AI407E16.htm

 

These volume-cheating additives are classed into two categories

Extenders: Vegetable-source proteins (soy)

Fillers: Vegetable-source carbs (pretty much any meal you can think of, including corn (mielie) meal)

 

Ok! Mystery solved!

Very interesting subject - just look at the difference in the colour of the fat for those that make their own biltong - grass or organic = yellow fat, grain fed = white fat

Sounds like you got the ass end of the deal
