Due to swine fever last year, the price of pork soared, and the prices of beef, mutton and chicken also rose sharply. Many friends said they couldn’t afford it, but when we went to the supermarket or bought it in When buying fresh food online, you can always see steaks of the same gram size. Fresh and marinated steaks have different prices. Marinated steaks with more exquisite packaging are actually cheaper than fresh beef. Why is this? Many people rush to buy steak at this time, but supermarket employees revealed that only fools buy this kind of steak.

In fact, this kind of marinated beef is not beef, but spliced ??steak. To put it bluntly, it is made of ground beef plus other ground meat, and then added "carrageenan" to splice it together. Carrageenan is an edible food additive that can bind minced meat together. This kind of steak is called steak, but it is actually "waste". No wonder the employees working in the supermarket said that only fools would buy it. This kind of steak.

So, at this point, everyone should have a certain understanding of this kind of synthetic steak. I originally wanted to go to the supermarket to buy some fresh beef, but what I got was this kind of synthetic meat. Not only does it not have the taste of beef itself, It may not necessarily have any impact on the body. In fact, this kind of steak is not very harmful. After all, it is something to be eaten, and it must have gone through formal testing. Although the minced meat used to synthesize the steak also uses food additives, it is There is no problem in itself, just like ham sausage, it is the same principle.

It’s just that during the synthesis process of minced meat, due to the large area of ??contact with the air, it will come into contact with many bacteria, and not only the surface of the steak, but also the interior will breed. This does not exist in fresh beef. problem, so after buying this kind of steak, you must fry it thoroughly over high heat to prevent the survival of microorganisms that breed inside the steak.

In fact, it is easy to distinguish this kind of synthetic steak. Generally speaking, synthetic steaks are very regular, like round or oval, but the steak itself has no rules at all. , after all, every piece of beef is different. After being cooked, the synthetic steak is very tender compared to fresh beef. It tastes particularly good and does not feel like wood at all, because it itself has a meat tenderizer added. In addition, the most convenient thing is the price. Hand-cut steak must be more expensive than synthetic steak, and the difference is not small. Usually when we go to a buffet restaurant to eat, it is actually easy to see such low-priced delicacies, relying on price to attract consumers' attention.
