So, what is viandes de poulet séparées mécaniquement?

"Viandes de poulet séparées mécaniquement" is a French term used to describe mechanically separated chicken meat. This process involves using high-pressure machines to separate the remaining meat from bones and other parts of the chicken carcass. The resulting product is a pink, paste-like substance that is often used in processed foods such as chicken nuggets and sausages. While it can be an inexpensive source of protein, some experts have raised concerns about its potential health risks due to its high fat and sodium content and the risk of contamination during processing. Therefore, it is important to consume this ingredient in moderation and to choose products made from whole cuts of chicken whenever possible.
