What do you think about this new expose, that our hamburger is injected with AMMONIA and the FDA mistakenly thought that adding ammonia to beef would kill all e.coli and salmonella.

Is this anything that 'low carb' diet afficianados should be concerned about???

Isn't ammonia .... a poisonous substance??

Ammonia is necessary for life. At the same time there can be too much of a good thing so there are limits ~

Back before chloro-fluoro-hydrocarbons ammonia was used in refrigeration systems. It was not unusual for it to come into contact with food.

As far as mixing it with hamburger made out of "scraps" I'm kind of concerned they're getting too much connective tissues in there ~
