    Hey Tammy Lively Padgett, I just found this on Bi-Lo’s Facebook: “As long as you buy Certified Angus Beef or Laura’s Lean Beef, you are good to go” – that’s their update when asked about pink slime.

    Please post the original link to the story for those that have not been informed. It’s great that you are keeping up and adding to the list but for those not in the know, they may need to start from the beginning?

    I received an email from Winn-Dixie and I would avoid buying ground beef there. Here’s their response:

    Dear Ms Valley,

    Pink slime is a pejorative term for boneless lean beef trimmings. The product is sold by a number of beef processing companies, including Cargill Meat Solutions and Beef Products, Inc (BPI) and is incorporated into ground beef
    products.

    In the process the lean beef is separated from fat. Then through a safety process to eliminate pathogens, gas (ammonia) is introduced to the beef to remove bacteria such as E. coli and Salmonella. This beef product is USDA-approved and is a component (typically less than 25 percent) of a majority of ground beef in the United States. Winn-Dixie gets its beef from suppliers who process lean beef trimmings.

    Winn-Dixie is known as The Beef People and we take great pride in the quality and processing standards for products made available to our guests. Our families shop and eat ground beef purchased at Winn-Dixie so our commitment to food safety is personal. We only sell product that comes from suppliers operating USDA inspected facilities and following USDA approved processes.
