Finger Food

From June 1979:
A Barrie family is suing a grocery store for selling them a package of ground veal containing part of a human finger...
"They were very upset," said the lawyer for the family, which includes two children. "For six months, they could not eat any ground meat. All they ate was steak."

How they must have suffered!

Oh geez. I remember when that happened. Kids on the playground were talking about that for weeks.

They were better off eating the unground meat. Stop and think of what could and can go into the average package of ground meat - tendon, connective tissue, fat, bone chips and perhaps the occasional fingertip from a human. I have a cast iron manual grinder and will buy a steak to grind up when I'm in the mood. At least I will know where the fingertip comes from...
