Mechanically Separated Goodness
Lots of blogs (and way to many emails) are flinging around a picture of what's known as mechanically separated chicken. It's made from bits of meat that's been stripped from chicken bones.
Looks like ice cream. Tastes like chicken.
Other meats are processed this way. There's mechanically separated beef, pork, and turkey.

Why is it pink? Is it raw?
Yes, the original is made of tiny bits of raw chicken meat. That'd be funny if they sold it in a can, like Cheeze Whiz. Can you imagine the commercial?
"Squirt, Heat 'n' eat chicken"
This is hilarious. I needed that laugh!
Thanks Linda!
You know a meat by-product is something special when dying it blue makes it more appetizing...
Very fun. Apparently I need photographic proof, because otherwise, I'd never believe any of this. :)
Boodababy,
Always happy to inform and enlighten :)
That stuff can only be called one thing: Blort.
Lisa,
"Blort" would be a good name. I'm pretty sure that's the sound it makes!
AMAZING JOB, this had me laughing for about five minutes (':
It's separated from the bones under super high pressure and pressed through a fine sieve, also under high pressure to create a paste. Blood, flesh, whatever is left on the bones. It used to be what McNasty nuggets were made of...not anymore though. It is still what most processed chicken consists of though. You've eaten it, I'm sure we all have.
