Talk:Meat and bone meal

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I can not see any good reason to merge these two items. They are different things. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.136.84.205 (talk) 20:49, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Merge from bone meal

Why don't you agree with the merge proposal? Also, the proposal was up for more than 5 days without reply, so I went through with it. I think it should be merged as a quality issue. You could have created all the information on that article under "meat and bone meal" which would have been more logical. The fact that it was created apart does not change this. I kept all the information after the merge; nothing was lost through it. Tom 21:17, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Bone meal is a completely different product from "meat and bone meal", and is used for different purposes. Dbfirs (talk) 17:41, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] But what IS it?

This article doesn't actually say what materials go into meat meal. Is there a range of possibilities? Is it just rendered beef & chicken? Is it anything that can be called "meat"? Does it have Soylent Green in it?  ;)

There's a Canadian documentary on google video called FrankenSteer - The Passionate Eye, that shows how "meat and bone meal" is manufactured (and fed to cows for its protein content) at minute 19:30, discussing its relation with the mad cow disease.

"Frankensteer is a disturbing documentary that reveals how the ordinary cow has been turned into an antibiotic-dependent, hormone-laced potential carrier of toxic bacteria.. ":
