❌ Even, in some extreme cases, meat blends that don’t match what the label says
Often, the meat you buy has been stored for days or weeks, but it is “revived” to appear freshly arrived.
🧪 How is meat disguised?
To deceive consumers, very common practices are used:
🔴 Dyes and gases to make the meat look red and shiny
💧 Injection of water and salts to increase weight
❄️ Freezing and refreezing, which deteriorates the quality
🧼 Washing with substances that temporarily eliminate bad odors
👉 The problem is that appearance is deceiving, but the meat has already lost nutrients and can develop dangerous bacteria.
⚠️ Real Risks to Your Health
Consuming spoiled or improperly handled meat can cause:
🤢 Food poisoning
🦠 Bacterial infections (Salmonella, E. coli, Listeria)
🤒 Stomach pain, diarrhea, and vomiting
