Yummy steaks!

Compared to everything else artificial we are eating, this doesn't bother me in the least.

It's not so much the meat glue that's the problem, it's combining the off cuts of the meat to make it appear as a premium cut steak. Not a good thing for the consumer...

Not to be argumentative - I tend to agree with you - but what about the guy doing the story who couldn't tell the difference?

I have to admit to actually liking that fake crab stuff. (Do they still make it? Don't remember seeing it recently in the store.) If I could get a nice "steak" at a lower price I might go for it. If they're going to try and pass it off as the real thing I would feel cheated.

In principal I understand, you are paying more for something and not necessarily getting what is advertised. If however, it's indistinguishable from a taste perspective, it kinda makes you question why you might be paying more for these premium cuts of steak. The potential of having overpaid for years and years might be the thing that makes you even more angry.
