In reply to the discussion: "Pink slime" ire prompts key producer to close plants [View all]Rozlee
(2,529 posts)18. Our ground beef smells wonderful.
We live in Boerne, TX and buy it from local cattlemen that sell at our Produce Days, at a couple of our specialty meat stores or for individual customers. The hamburger actually tastes and smells meaty, unlike the one we buy at the local HEB and Walmart, even though HEB states they don't use pink slime. And it's even cheaper. Always best to go local and know your beef producer.
