They used up to 7% LFTB back in the day. It looked nothing like the emulsified chicken pictured in the articles. It is a wholesome product yet not one I would choose to put in my ground beef due to the amount of connective tissue. You're close to the source, have any questions you'd like honest answers for?

Hate to break it to you but your local supermarket and big grocery chain uses cow beef for ground beef also. Same stuff as McDonald's. You guys are perpetuating old info (circa 2012) that has to do with XF trim and LFTB.
So wrong here. They grind trimmings, the same trimmings that are ground into ground beef that sits in the counters of your local retailer. I sell this shit and can guarantee you the McDonald's system is not my last option, those trimmings all make it into the food supply. Also you can't feed cow parts to food animals ,it's a BSE risk.
Not percentage wise though. Their money moves the markets and it'll be them getting out that tanks your index funds. They'll rotate into something else while you wait 8 years to get back to even because AI stocks were 40% of the market and what they run up next is only 5% of your portfolio.
It's got to be near a top, but news like this makes me feel like they're looking to drop the market for one more final push though.
But do the cabbage worms fuck with it?
You're not crazy we just comment on headlines here, it's easier this way
Great context! While the recall shouldn't be ignored, 167k is indeed a teeny tiny amount of beef that only that specific GA market should worry about.
By my cowboy calculations the domestic beef packers produce about 400 million pounds of beef per week. 140m of that is trim for ground beef and another 120m are beef cuts. Rest is organ meat and bones.
Your local Sysco chews through more beef than this in a day.
Fake inspection bug is no joke though. This isn't a case of a reputable supplier that started running before their tardy inspector arrived. This is an unscrupulous rogue actor that likely has 0 concern for product safety.
