Over regulating is bad, but why is this allowed?

[awatarius]

Ok guys I am not a huge regulation guy (save for banking and a few other industries), but this would seem to be bad in my mind. I CERTAINLY would want to know if I was eating it or not!

the FDA considers it GRAS (generally regarded as safe) and I cook my meat so it doesn't bother me health wise, I would like to know on the label if it was used though.

Hello,

Aye that's my main issue is that it's not labeled. It would make a difference in how I cooked it for sure.

Thanks,

Definitely, I know a lot fo people that like their meat at least pink on the inside... this puts the outside on the inside of the meat.

Regulate shmegulate- it's alright. I ate plenty of glue when I was a kid and I'm fine. Well, there is that 6th toe thing I grew around 9...and chronic constipation, but other than that, I'm cool.

I take it no one here is a molecular gastronomy chef?

Wylie Dufresne would have to go back to doing stupid tricks with eggs if you guys ban transglutaminase.

I give you, tilapia noodles.

I didn't say anything about banning it.... I couldn't go without my imitation crab meat...

Horrifying... I don't say ban I say label. Let me know that this stuff is held together by pigs and cows blood after being liquified.

Why is it horrifying? Do you eat meat? Have you never eaten bone marrow? Mmmmm.

I never worried about this stuff before, since we don't eat chicken nuggets and other commonly processed "meat-like products". Now I'm realizing that this crap is way more prevalent than I realized. Thanks for the info.

Hamburgers don't hold themselves together. Especially when you're slinging them by the dozen.

Ever wonder why a fast food hamburger doesn't crumble like a real hamburger?

Sounds more like welded meat than glued meat.
