"piece of meat"? Don't kid yourself. I'm sure it's a well ground up
slurry containing some actual meat (or meat by products!) and lots of
chemicals, then forced into essentially an injection molding machine
and then subjected to heat for cooking, so it holds it's shape.
Probably on a very large scale machine too. 1000's produced an hour,
I'll bet.
