It Came From the Media: What Prompted the Ruckus about "Pink Slime" And Is It Unhealthy?

        Michael Moss and Amy Hubbard are two people involved in the process of figuring out weather or not the pink slime on meat is unhealthy or not. There is pink slime on beef, but it also could be unhealthy. Pink slime is generally the fat and meat removed from standard meat cute. Scientists that the pink slime could be unhealthy, and there could be unwanted things inside it. It could also be healthy, we just hadn't figured that out yet.
        I think that scientists should develop different methods into finding out weather the pink slime is healthy or not. Some people can be eating the pink slime but it can be extremely unhealthy. But also for the people not eating it, it can be extremely healthy but we just don't know. The soupy meat slime through a thin tube. Then there is some ammonia gas. Afterwards the ammonia gas reacts to form ammonium hydroxide. This decreases acidy and kills any pathogenic germs in the meat. They should find out if the pink slime is healthy or not so it wouldn't be dangerous if we did eat it or if it could help us if we do eat it.
