Cygnia Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Re: Foods for those that just don't care anymore Half a roasted duck in my belly later, I can state that dinner was a success! No problems with too much fat smoking or burning, it was cooked through and I min-maxed everything utensil-wise so that clean-up afterwards wasn't too bad. I didn't have Chinese five spice powder, but I substituted a couple dashes of piri-piri sauce and that worked out OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archermoo Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Re: Foods for those that just don't care anymore This Is What Really Hides in Taco Bell's "Beef" Hmm...gizmodo. First flag for me. Not as big a flag as it would be were Apple to be involved, but still a flag. Their list of ingredients in the article not matching what is on the label that they show the photograph of is flag #2. And then putting forth the claim that it is only 36% beef based solely on the claim of the people suing Taco Bell, with no substantiation of any kind offered. That's flag #3. If we ever get to the point of any actual information showing up, please let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main problems with their list are a) leaving off the main ingredient (beef) and not noting that the vast majority of those ingredients are a breakdown of "seasonings". The actual ingredient list is: Beef, water, seasoning, salt, sodium phosphate, less than 2% of beef broth, potassium phosphate, and potassium lactate. The label also shows what "seasoning" contains. Isolated oat product, salt, chili pepper, onion powder, tomato powder, oats (wheat), soy lecithin, sugar, spices, maltodextrin, soybean oil (anti-dusting agent), garlic powder, autolyzed yeast extract, citric acid, caramel color, cocoa powder, silicon dioxide (anti-caking agent), natural flavors, yeast, modified corn starch, natural smoke flavor. For that matter it also notes that it contains soy and wheat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Celt Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Re: Foods for those that just don't care anymore Taco Bell fights back on beef lawsuit with ad push The print ads say, in huge letters, "Thank you for suing us. Here's the truth about our seasoned beef." They go on to outline the meat's ingredients. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
