Meat-Judging Said Problem for Housewife Burlington, Vt. -IUPD- Eye appealing transparent cover ing has replaced the tradition al butchers' brown wrapping paper, but housewives still have meat-judging problems. The color of meats can be judged through the transpar ent films used in supermar kets, but the customer still must go-home before testing the flavor and odor of meats, said University of Vermont home economist Elizabeth El bert. The film covering which shows off the desirable bright red of beef and the delicate pink of pork and veal must be removed soon after the pre packaged meats are brought home, she said. Meat retailers recommend removing or loosening the wrap to permit more circula tion of air before the food is refrigerated or stored by freezing. Meat kept in film -type wrapping longer than three days becomes discolored with resulting impairment in odor and flavor. The word "Acronized" on poultry indicates the bird has been dipped into a chilled anti biotic solution. Dr. Elbert said. The process inhibits the growth of bacteria and will keep the bird fresh longer. Freezing is an excellent means of retarding bacterial action but pre-packaged meat or poultry must be given addi tional wrapping before ex posure to low temperatures.
