It’s not ketchup that comes out when you cook a steak?
Comment on Blood Meal
Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 1 week agoIts still safe to say that someone who eats meat is also eating blood, right?

There’s trace amounts of blood in meat. They drain out a huge majority at the slaughterhouse, but it’s nearly impossible to get out every drop. If there’s a lot of blood in your meat though, something probably went wrong at the slaughterhouse.
Some cuisines feature actual blood as an ingredient though - blood sausages from the UK contain actual significant amounts of added blood, cubes of solidified pork blood “tofu” are considered a delicacy in some places in China - I think it’s safe to say people that enjoy those kinds of foods can be said to eat blood. But I don’t think people that eat meat can be said to eat blood, for the same reason that you wouldn’t say someone that drinks tap water drinks mercury.
