Comment on Jamie Oliver Proves McDonald’s Burgers “Unfit for human consumption”

Comments

My knowledge of modern chemistry (and chemical manufacture) is a little sketchy but, at a crude level, isn't this just taking unfit meat, soaking it in piss and then passing it off as safe?

Why?

Until recently Ammonia was extracted from Urine and rotten vegetables was it not?

Urine contains a lot of things, urea being one. Urea can be broken down into ammonia, but ammonia isn't ammonium hydroxide any more than sodium chloride is chlorine. They're not washing the meat with piss by any measure.
