Pink slime — that ammonia-treated meat in a bright Pepto-bismol shade — may have been rejected by fast food joints like McDonald’s, Taco Bell and Burger King, but is being brought in by the tons for the nation’s school lunch program.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture is purchasing 7 million pounds of the “slime” for school lunches, The Daily
reports. Officially termed “Lean Beef Trimmings,” the product is a
ground-up combination of beef scraps, cow connective tissues and other
beef trimmings that are treated with ammonium hydroxide to kill
pathogens like salmonella and E. coli. It’s then blended into
traditional meat products like ground beef and hamburger patties.

“We originally called it soylent pink,” microbiologist Carl Custer, who worked at the Food Safety Inspection Service for 35 years, told The Daily.
“We looked at the product and we objected to it because it used
connective tissues instead of muscle. It was simply not nutritionally
equivalent [to ground beef]. My main objection was that it was not
meat.”

Custer and microbiologist Gerald Zernstein concluded in a study that
the trimmings are a “high risk product,” but Zernstein tells The Daily
that “scientists in D.C. were pressured to approve this stuff with
minimal safety approval” under President George H.W. Bush’s
administration. The USDA asserts that its ground beef purchases “meet the highest standard for food safety.”
