That is not beef, and this photo is commonly used to misrepresent the product. It actually looks like this: I'd grill it.

Then what is the stuff in the photo I posted? And why was it only allowed in pet food until recently?

According to this wiki...

“Pink slime, also known as lean finely textured beef (LFTB) [2] and boneless lean beef trimmings (BLBT)[3], is a beef-based food additive that may be added to ground beef and beef-based processed meats as an inexpensive filler.”

Is the pic you posted of pink slime, that looks red, a beef-based food additive? It looks a lot like hamburger to me!

I’ve seen the pink, ice cream looking ooze (same pic as above) being reported to be McDonald’s Chicken Nuggets too. Personally, I think this is a lot of hysteria created by veggie Nazis on the left that want to turn people off any kind of meat.
