    human grade

    this is the only thing that I need to hear about stuff that goes into my body. chalk paste? cartilage trimmings? yes! as long as it's human grade, I'll eat it!

        lol, solid ass bit.

        I went to school for like ag and food shit, so I learned the grading system. the real terms are more dystopian, because of course the the optics of anything that doesn't look amazing would be bad for industry.

        so, I invite you all to see the beef quality grades in the US from highest to lowest:

        • prime
        • choice
        • select
        • (if you're at a grocery store and you're buying beef as an ingredient to take home and prepare food, it is one of the ones above this line... below this point is entering the Dark Territory)
        • standard
        • commercial
        • utility
        • cutter
        • canner

      Phó is largely cartilage and offal and it may be the most delicious soup in the world.

        I love cartilage and offal. Never really understood the brainworms people have that makes some part of an animal less gross to eat than other parts. It's all just taste and texture.
        I only eat meat as a rare treat these days, but when I do I'll often use heart or liver or something.

          It's classism and racism

          Poor and non white people eat those undesirable parts

            Yeah it sucks. I just don't understand why otherwise normal people still have those brainworms. Like I have a lot of leftist friends that will happily eat a steak, but be weird about the other stuff.

              Left economic politics are not necessarily mutually exclusive with racism

              Much easier to have beliefs that benefit you than beliefs that don't

          For me it's the texture, gives me the heebie-jeebies (not talking about other parts like offal, just meat-related hard, crunchy, slimy textures etc)

        TIL, the phó places here usually have brisket, beef balls, tendon and tripe (which I guess is offal). haven't really seen cartilage

      Wait we're supposed to be actively fighting them? I just tell everyone who brings up culture war nonsense that it's all a ploy by the ruling class to distract working people from their exploitation.

    I do this with my dog but because I'm not a freak we just share human food while I cook. fruit & veggie trimmings, meat scraps, etc. no product required.

      I'd be cleaning off my carrots with a peeler and instead of throwing them in the trash if just have my dog come over and have him gobble up all the trimmings. He was an absolute veggie fiend

    Oof, they only advertise on Rumble and they feature an endorsement from Russel "Paedophile rapist" Brand at the Republican National Convention. Why do we need anti-woke dog food for humans?

        I screamed at a Petco employee because none of the dogs on the bags had nipples anymore. I fucking screamed.
