Oh, you're singing my song now! I refuse to knowingly buy Hormel pork
products. Take a look at the fine print on the label and note how much
"patented flavor solution" has been pumped into it. I bitched to my
local butcher about it yesterday and he remarked about how "wet" those
piggies are when he's cutting them.

The piece of Hormel crap that offends me the most is their pork
tenderloins. The tenderloin is the tenderest piece of meat on that
critter and there is "up to thirty percent patented flavor solution"
injected. That means thirty percent of the selling price is for
flavored water. Screw 'em.

There's a lot of truth to that.
