Ever eat a hotdog or burger?
Just don't think "cat".

Bingo.
I stay away from meat I can't identify.

Or...
Do you know there is a measurement standard for amount of RAT feces in Hotdog Grind? As well as the amount of RAT protein.
Or that there is standard for the measurement of amount of cowhide(with hair count) in Hotdog grind?

Head cheese is even better than hotdogs . .
. . since you can easily identify many of the pig parts it's made from. It has more texture and a more interesting appearance. I love head cheese, but it's distressingly fattening.

So? Did you know . .
. . there are standards controling how much rat shit is allowed in your breakfast cereal? And the allowable number of insect parts? The same goes for bread and bakery products, catsup, and just about anything else categorized by the FDA.

Urban legend?
In my browsing around the USDA's FSIS site I've seen pages that indicate there's a "Zero Tolerance" policy for beef feces. On [link|http://www.fsis.usda.gov/OPPDE/rdad/FSISDir7000.htm|this] page of directives for processed products I haven't been able to find anything about permissible levels of rat hair or feces. They have several directives about controlling bacteria, etc.
Are you sure this isn't an urban legend from the days before the USDA when hot dogs were made of sawdust and the like? I'd be very interested in a link if you can find one. Thanks.
Cheers,
Scott.

I know a meat cutter who slaughtered in CA
the inspectors would walk by rat carcasses and complain that the procedures were wrong, cutting bla before Ka.
Alway enjoyed his stories of eating lunch with feces up to his elbows and daintily holding the sarnie via the waxed paper.
thanx,
bill

Nope, NOT urban legend.
That was RAT feces and RAT protein.
And it was cowhide(with hair count), or leather, not Bovine Feces.
Bovine Feces gets washed off at the Slaughter house, with a special wash.
And, since I lived next door to a "Mr. Turkey meat inspector" he showed me the "Book". It was current as of 1998 when he showed me. He has now retired to Florida. But I could prolly get ahold of him for you.
You have to get the Full listings of the 2 inch thick book. I do not believe they publish it on the net. For just such reasons as people would FREAK OUT about the fact there is even a measurment for these things.

Makes me wonder.
I mean, where do people think this stuff comes from? The Meat Tree or something?

There are also thick books of pictures . .
. . at various magnifications to help inspectors identify various insect parts, feces, etc. Back when I dealt with government standards I saw advertisements for those books.

..and for spices, most other 'foods'
Nobody expects these counts to be Zero (except naive consumers, in the homogenized society). I vas dere, saw some of the filter screens and their contents.
Yup, we eats lots of (little bits of) shit.
Organic life is Messy, like Us. (and US)
