Instead of using it for humans most of that gristle that could have been rendered into tallow and used for human consumption is literally ground up for pet food.

We throw away an absurd amount at the butcher shop I work at. We make birdseed balls and sell some to deer hunters to fatten up their ground venison but so much is wasted. I hate to see it. I already have a ton in my deep freezer I need to get around to rendering it.

That's absurd. As much as steak ... or they just throw it out. Absurd.

Not sure what that guy said but we keep what is useful for ground beef and we use some fat for suet and to sell to deer hunters but the rest we just don't have a way to market so it has to be tossed. If they let us process our own tallow and sell it we would but red tape prevents that. A lot of our waste is due to red tape that doesn't actually improve food safety.

It has been demonised so harshly that the scale of production isn't big enough to bring the price down, it should really be half the price of ground beef.

A couple of huge vats in the oven over night is the way to go.

I frequently mock Americans for owning so many useless house cats and house dogs that are inbred, stupid, have hip deformities, etc. Just because the sad sacks of shit need some kind of substitute for companionship.
