We're having tacos tonight, but the ones I make will be filled with ground turkey and not the stuff one law firm alleges is in Taco Bell seasoned ground beef tacos:
What’s inside that Taco Bell beef taco you just ate?Mmmm. Add a little hot sauce and you've got yourself quite a treat.
A class-action lawsuit filed by an Alabama law firm alleges that only 36 percent of the substance Taco Bell markets as “seasoned beef” or “seasoned ground beef” actually contains meat. The rest of the “filling,” according to the complaint, is made up of “substances other than beef.”
“Rather than beef, these food items are actually made with a substance known as ‘taco meat filling.’ Taco meat filling mostly consists of ‘extenders’ and other non-meat substances. Taco meat filling is not beef.
“Taco Bell’s ‘seasoned beef’ actually contains among other ingredients, water, ‘Isolated Oat Product,’ wheat oats, soy lecithin, maltodrextrin, anti-dusting agent, autolyzed yeast extract, modified corn starch and sodium phosphate, as well as beef and seasonings.”
I think I'll stick with the ground turkey variety. At least I know there's actual turkey in there.
